    Yugo M57 and surplus ammo??

    Anyone have any experience with the Yugoicon Tokarev M57 and surplus ammo? My Czechicon CZ 52 simply won't shoot it (the hammer doesn't it the stiff primers hard enough...maybe it's the gun, though). I'm reluctant to purchase another 7.62x25 if it won't fire my huge brick of surplus ammo.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    My M57 fires everything so far. What type of ammo are you shooting in the CZ?

    The M57 is basically a TT33, so it should be fine as the Tokarev has a reputation for eating everything it is fed.
