R.I.P. Scout26
Due to BATFE import restrictions, poor-quality frame or trigger safeties were frequently fitted to surplus models imported to the United States.
Yugoslavian TTC Tokarev Semi-Auto Pistol Manufactured by Zastava Arms - 7.62x25 caliber - Good Surplus Condition. This model comes with the trigger safety rather the more traditional frame safety.
Recently M57's have been imported with trigger safeties (like seen on Glocks). Prior to these imports , M57's will be found with external safeties added to the frame or slide, requiring a hole drilled for mounting. THE ADDED SAFETY IS ONE OF THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE GUN CONTROL ACT OF 1968 FOR US IMPORTATION. No military issue TT33 models were produced with a safety, with the exception of the 1958 Tokagypt (for Egypt).Trigger safeties can be replaced with original triggers without modification.
