Tokarev TBP-12

[TeufelgundenArmory]

Hurm.

Have you tried taking a punch (delrin if possible, or wrap some tape around a steel punch to prevent peening the nut) and giving it a firm tap?

I have not. Just to clarify, put the punch in one of the unused setting screw holes?

I’d probably use one of those notches,…you’re going to try and “punch” it counterclockwise (would probably work best with the receiver chucked in a vise).

I'll definitely try that out. Counterclockwise as if you were holding the gun and shooting correct? Surely they (Tokarev) wouldn't mean clockwise from staring down the barrel, right?

I went back and read every post. So I have to ask, why not try to call the company that either produced or distributed them to FFLs to see if they have a solution or even ask if you can ship it back for a factory repair. Because once you bang on it any warrenty that's available will be voided and you are likely to end up with an expensive paper weight! Just my 2 cents.

Spanner wrench sets are pretty cheap on places like Amazon. 15 bucks .

I would assume looking at the threads it would be lefty loosey. I think I’d send it back though honestly.
