Just got back from shooting my Tokarev - not what I expected, but in a good way. I guess it was more noisy than most pistols, but recoil was hardly noticeable. I only put 50 rounds through it, but the gun cycled perfectly. The trigger on my gun seems light and smooth - I prefer it to any of my 1911's. The hardest part of shooting this gun is finding the front sight, but I wasn't rapid firing, so that wasn't too big of a deal.
Let's talk about accuracy - WOW! I was concerned because the inside of my barrel looks frosted up or pitted. I'm not worried anymore. This gun is a tack driver! Those pinko, commie, bastards were really onto something with this cartridge. It didn't take long to get bored hitting my target (a 4 inch post it note) at 10 yards, so I had to move out to 15 yards for a challenge. Even then, the challenge was finding the front sight.

All in all, I am really impressed with this gun.
