Romanian TTC Question

Satanic Toaster · August 25, 2010, 03:41 PM

I just picked up a Romanian TTC and I have a quick question that I haven't been able to find an answer to on Google.

I want to remove the lanyard ring on the left side of the grip since I am a lefty shooter and I was planning on making some new grips for it to fill the hole that will be left.

Can I easily remove the lanyard ring or do I have to cut it off?
Also, can I remove the safety that they installed right below the slide stop? it seems to be in the way for my grip.

Thanks!

I think you might just have to cut it off. I have Norinco copy of the Tokarev, and I'm primarily a lefty as well. These guns were not built very ambi-friendly as near as I can tell.

My solution was just to shoot the dang thing right handed. I'm a passable shot rightie...certainly better than dealing with the lanyard digging into my palm. I just hate to chop up a gun that can't be imported any longer.

You will have to cut it off the safety can easily be removed. But www.marschalgrips.com make grips to accomidate the lanyard and safety

Mr. Toaster, meet Mr. Dremel.
Mr. Dremel, I hear that Mr. Toaster has a problem that you can solve....
Sorry man, you're going to have to cut. But you will enjoy the TTC when you're done!

Happy shooting.
