The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

New (to me) Romanian TTC. Really digging it, ammo is on the way. Conveniently, my most recent issue of Shotgun News had a very nice article on how to totally strip and reassemble every last spring, bolt and fitting for a real cleaning so that is on the agenda.

Nice package from J&G



Love the heft of an all steel pistol.



1953 Cugir Romanian TTC - man that safety looks cheesy but it is what it is.



They brought out six for me. This one was in pretty nice shape and so was another but the other had the generic grips and this one had the cooler "Star RPR" grips so I went for this one.



Yes, the barrel has had some corrosive down it but overall, lands and grooves look sharp and I think some shooting and cleaning will clean this up nicely. All I have done here is run a boresnake down it a couple of times. Not too bad for a $199.00 pistol.

Nice. I liked my TT- 33 in 7.62X25 so well that when Zastava came out this model in 9mm I had to have it also.

Nice piece

Should I worry about having the corrosion around the crown lapped out? Should I buy a new barrel? I am just going to shoot it to see what it does first.

Nice pistol, has me thinking about a little road trip

They are very comfortable to shoot

Just use some 0000 steel wool with some oil and then just oil after every use.

Good looking pistol for a good price.

I like it. Problem is, now I am thinking about a Polish, Yugo and maybe even a Chinese. It would be fun to have all of the variants.
