Guess it depends on where you live. With the safety, that's a $175 pistol around here, $125 if it were in 9mm. The holster is a nice add, they never come with the pistols.

SlimTim, I wish I lived in your area I could have saved a couple of bucks. Every other Chinese Tokarev I found was anywhere from $350 - $450 I guess I could have done better but I also could have done worse.

Dealers ask more for them for sure, but you can often get them from individuals at shows. I was offered a 7.62x25 model T-54 at the last Knoxville show for $200, didn't bite as the grips were something the seller made himself and it had the safety. An aquaintance bought it though, told me he gave $175.

Stopped in at Volunteer Ordnance Works last night, he had 3 of the 9mm Type 54-1s in the case for $179 each, no 7.62 chambered ones around.
