I never see them for sale. Tons of Mosin-Nagants, but never the Tokarev.

Where did you find one, and how much (if I may ask) are you giving for it?

OK So I mentioned a bunch of choices earlier. and here is the one I made.
Went with side arm and carbine in the same caliber.

This is by far one of the lightest full size handguns I have ever held. The trigger is incredible for an out of the box handgun. Recoil is minimal it feels like a 22 mag. However the rounds whistling THROUGH the 22 mag rated spinners indicate a much better penetration rate. I think I am in love!

Guy off a forum and a rehoming fee of $750.

Seems high but its better than $1k+ for what they go for on gunbroker. Theyre cheap as hell in Moose country but getting one down here is a bitch from what Ive read.
