Rather than highjack the 7.62x25mm Tok thread I thought I start a new one and ask about the M-201C and NP-17 9mm Tokarevs that Marstar has. Norinco bashing aside how do they shoot, handle, etc. I find cleaning after corrosive ammo a pain so I'd rather not get the regular Tok. Thoughts?
 
hey Happydude

You can still get a regular tok. I bought mine at lever and it came with a 9mm barrel and meg (in addition to the 7.62 stuff). I've never shot it in 7.62, I swapped barrels (takes a quick sec or two) and I've never had a FTF or hiccup yet. some guys had trouble with the 7.62 recoil spring being to strong for the 9mm and causeing FTF. its a nice nimble little gun, I really like mine. I won't be winning any awards with it, but it's reliable as hell. I'd like to tell you if it's accourate, but the gun shoots better then I do so it's hard to say. guess I still need some more practice. I even found the god-awful grips they have to be comfortable (go figure!). BTW, you CAN use the 7.62 meg to shoot 9mm. the trick is to seat the bullets forward, not back.
good luck with your search, happy shooting!

Cheers,

I have one(m201), it shoots great but one of my mags got chewed up by the mag catch when I was shooting 147gr, no problems shooting the light stuff.
