The TT-30 (7,62 mm Samozarjadnyj Pistolet Tokareva obrazca 1930
goda, Russian: 7,62-мм
самозарядный
пистолет
Токарева
образца 1930
года) is a semi-automatic
pistol developed by Fedor
Tokarev as a service
pistol for the Soviet
military to replace the Nagant
M1895 revolvers in use since tsarist
times.
In 1930, the Revolutionary Military council approved a resolution to test new
small arms to replace its aging Nagant
M1895 revolvers.[1]
During these test, on January 7, 1931, the potential of a pistol designed by
Fedor Tokarev was noted. A few weeks later, 1000 TT-30's were ordered for troop
trials, and the pistol was adopted for service in the Red Army. |
