Anybody have real experience in the 7.62x25 tok?

I owned a 7.62 Chinese clone Tokarev once. Hard hitting cheap gun. Ammo used to be dirt cheap. Not so much these days.


ETA. None of the pistol rated vest stop it IIRC.

I came in here expecting to see a 762x25 AK.

Me too. I always thought a Bizon looking AK in this cal would be fun.

To answer the op's question. I have a Romanian Tokarev a PPS-43 semi and am slowly building a PPS-43 sbr. Ammo has gone up a lot. The days of cheap surplus are gone. Commercial loadings are available.

To supplement my stash of surplus ammo, I reload. Boxer primed brass is available from time to time and I use Hornady bullets. I also use .223 brass cut down and formed to make Tokarev brass. It's kind of an involved process but I get much better consistent velocity and accuracy.

If your looking for a fun firearm, pick one up in this caliber.

Somebody was doing an AK in 7.62x25. There was also a way to use a PPSh-41 drum.
