What would be the ball park price on a like new no import markings that I can see it is dated 1947 and is all stamped matching even the 1mag but it comes with 2 mags manufacture is Izhevsk. Thanks for any help Chris(gunhead) The gun is Russian
I can not do pic right now. I will see if I can take some side shots the pistol has no added safety & no refeb
marks It seems to be all original I know 1947 was a low production date on M-44s Is it the same for the TT-33 in that year?
A war-time TT-33 with matching mag and "like new" is likely to be $1,500 or more, if sold with good pics on Gunbroker. I would think that a like condition, non-refurb, non-import from 1947 would creep toward that mark as well.
From my experience postwar unmolested matching TT33's in great condition are a lot harder to find than wartime or prewar TT 33's (not so many bring backs) so I would not be surprised if it sells for over $1500
But an otherwise identical looking & working regular TT33 is only worth $250. I will never understand the
collector mindset. Anyway, TT33s are great pistols. I've got 8 of the regular ones.
Martin, I have never seen a war time TT33 in "like new" condition with a matching mag. If you know of one, or anyone else does, please post pictures? In 18 years of collecting, I have never seen one.

A 1941 tt-33 with 2 mismatched mags and a holster just sold on gunbroker for $1,225
Does anyone know the meaning of the marking that's behind the date? It's visible in the 2nd photo in the listing. I've seen it before on another tt-33 (or maybe it was the same pistol and is being sold again now). Almost looks like a date, 1966? 19GS?
The pics did not help much but looks like refurb to me, if this is the case the fair price drops below $1000 (in my opinion), I also believe postwar original mags did not have loops (need to look up since what year)
Please explain,in the case of TT33 ....war time ones, what refurbish means? I know that the box with a line through it indicates "a Russian refurbish" TT33. I have a TT33 that has no box with a line through it but was refurbished by the Polish (no import mark). It has brand new Polish grips on it along with a new barrel and mag. forced matched to the pistol. My point being.......... Other countries,Eastern Block, refurbished Russian pistols too but NO refurbish marks. They were not allowed to put Russian grips back on the pistol.... my understanding?

My understanding is that 1st GRAU Arsenal is only one of several TT refurb facilities in Soviet Union, right? I am learning too. Thanks!
