Value of original TT30

[dimon]

Just very curious: how much would this one fetch on the Canadian market? It's all original 1934 TT30 WWII vet bring back, original bluing, two original matching mags etc(it even came with 4 rds of pre-1942 made ammo)...I've seen one of these on the US site with mismatched mag listed over 2000.00USD I know, in the US these must be fitted with manual safety(new imports), but still...
I'm not going to sell this one, frankly it's one of the guns that I would never sell. I just need an honest opinion.

Here I would give this one perhaps a 50 % premium over the average TT-33. Not enough knowledgeable collectors of TT variants or even eligible buyers to drive prices up to US levels.

Nice score in any event.

From Wikipedia:

"In 1930, the Revolutionary Military council approved a resolution to test new small arms to replace its aging Nagant M1895 revolvers.[1] During these tests, on January 7, 1931, the potential of a pistol designed by Fedor Tokarev was noted. A few weeks later, 1,000 TT-30s were ordered for troop trials, and the pistol was adopted for service in the Red Army.[2]

But even as the TT-30 was being put into production, design changes were made to simplify manufacturing. Minor changes to the barrel, disconnector,[3] trigger and frame were implemented, the most notable ones being the omission of the removable backstrap and changes to the full-circumference locking lugs. This redesigned pistol was the TT-33.[2] The TT-33 was widely used by Soviet troops during World War II, but did not completely replace the Nagant until after the war."
