TT-33 Loose Slide

[Mopar15]

I just bought a 1936 TT-33 and slide to frame fit is looser than a Las Vegas working girl. Its not so bad in the back but near the front of the gun theres a ####load of movement between the slide and frame.

Thanks in advance for any replies

Your TT33 says, Welcome to Soviet Russia

It is normal and not much you can do about it

Thanks for the reply. I hope i can hit with it, otherwise its a 200 dollar paperweight.

The're no custom 1911, but still group well.

It won't affect accuracy too much. Should still be able to hit a figure 12 at 10 paces lol

Forget the slide, I'm more impressed the OP used "loose" instead of "lose".

Its a mid 30s design, most models were made during the war or slightly after...and they cost $200 all in, cannot expect much!!!

With GOOD ammo, they are minute of man at all ranges, even 100 yards

Thanks for the reply, im a huge gun nut and a huge history nerd so i know the history behind them and all that but i just wasnt expecting so much slack. Mines a 1936 so i expected slightly higher level of pre-war quality goodness.

I have a 1944 TT33 and a more modern M57 TT33 (2013 manufacture) with a tighter frame fit and guide rod . the 1944 shoots slightly better !

Can't go wrong at that price.
