Just want some affirmation here. I have bought one at Jan and got it last week. Love it so much. Shoot great at the range, easily strip down to single pieces, nice balance and fun to play around.
Suddenly I am thinking if...I need some spare parts, or just the barrel? How much I have to pay to get a new barrel?..,
Then I order a second one, (hoping that CanAm still get it in stock) just in case, I need some spare part, or extra mags, or...the best solution: get a second one.
What do you think?
 
Heck order two more :)

I just got my twins in the mail last week and am wondering if a couple more won't be a bad idea.

Likely just throw them in the safe inside the original packing.
 
Yeah..that what I'm thinking about it too
just ordering 2 additional mags will cost you about $50 and the barrel about $100...so if you have some cash to spare GO FOR IT!, the slide stop is about $30 alone!
 
it;s a neat little gun, but i wouldnt invest anything on it. if anything broke, i'll move on to another gun and keep the m213 in the safe as part of the collection or i'll turn it into a display gun or something.
 
I bought 1...... then the next day I bought another..... then I bought 2 more.....

I have a bud who wanted 2 but I may just tell him to buy his own..... I may need the parts/mags.....

As someone said in the other thread....... extra mags are cheap, buy 2 for $99, comes with a free pistol!
 
already owned 2, one for each hand, in 7.62 x 25 with the 9mm conversion. Love the guns, but i paid $199 each back when they were expensive!
 
I just recieved mine and really like it. Kind of ugly but it grows on you after a while. Seems solid enough. Grips suck and the safety is a joke. Its great for my wife with a smaller hand. I might also buy one more for myself if there is any left for that price,but also want the 9mm 1911.
 
When I ordered mine I had the benifit of seeing all the solo buyer's regrets. So I just ordered two to avoid the duplicate paperwork.... :D

Being so new to all this I could only go by the pictures I'd seen. But this past weekend I saw a bunch of the original Tokarev's at the local gunshow we had out this way. I'm really pumped about getting my two 213's now and giving them the once over benifit of my budding gunsmithing skills to clean and polish up the works and then get out and try them out.

And yes, with two guns there WILL be a two handed double mag free for all at some point just to see what it's like.... :D

I afree with NAA on this one...I thought about getting one (and pobably would get one if it was in 7.62x25) but I have no use for a cheap 9mm since I have a couple quality ones; it would just sit in the safe and collect dust. I have better use for the money :)

Well, apparently IM_Lugger & are on the same page. I even went so far as to place an order for a M213 but cancelled it before it was processed.

Got to thinking if I was going to get a Tok it would be one of the Soviet surplus ones in 7.62x25. Gotta admit $99 is pretty luring for a functional econo 9mm pistol. But I already own other 9mm's including a Colt Combat commander and a BHP MkIII. So that swayed it for me.

I'm glad the M213 was offered but they just aren't for everybody for various reasons.
