I also find the Tokarev to be a fine pistol. My current one is Romanian. My first Tokarev was a Chinese Type 54 which was brought back from Viet Nam since it's former owner just didnt need it anymore.
It looked as if it had spent some time in a rice paddy, and it was mismatched serial numbers between frame and slide. Barrel very dark and pitted. Yet, it fired every time and was accurate.
I find the grip to work fine, and even find it to point well for me. Recoil is non-existant.
A good Tokarev is one of the best pistols going. I use mine for my woods pistol.
