I have experience with a couple of Chinese Tokarevs that I've picked up over the years.they haven't given me any problems. The mil surp bug caught me pretty hard and I've been needing to pick up a cz52.
Had the CZ52, mine was smooth and accurate, but I never

could get use to the grip, just didnt fit me right. I always had the idea of taking the roller locking design and changing the grip to a Browning or Luger configuration. Love the cartridge, never understood why it wasnt utilized more?
Roman has a Tok that he loves.

It shoots a 90 gr. bullet at a real 1500-1550 fps! Hot! We converted a $100 9mm Norinco to 7.62x25, cost us about $50. It shoots real accurate too. The mag well had a filler and I had to re-time the ejector for the longer round. Uses a different mag too. Slim and handy, good sights. Lots in common with the 1911 as to barrel locking. The cartridge is longer than the .45 ACP and guns can't easily be converted to it. I had a sleek CZ52 that I liked (roller locking like a HK rifle). However it did not perform as well as the more simplified Tok. Find one that has a rear slide mounted safety and have at it. I have dies somewhere but don't think I've gotten around to loading for it, or the Makarov 9.3x18mm just yet.
They are some fun and worthy platforms.
