So I was looking online for holidays specials on firearms and came across a few sites selling incomplete Romanian Tokarev kits fro $99. They include major parts like barrel, slide, frame, and some other stuff.

My question is, if I acquired the rest of the parts to complete the firearm, how difficult would it be to build it? What would be required? I have very little experience working on firearms, and it just seemed like it would be a fun project. I've shot a Tokarev before and I really liked it so this seems like it would be a neat way to actually own one. I tried searching on Google for about 30 minutes for people talking about building Tokarevs to no avail. Does anyone here have an idea of the difficulty level of this?
