For fans of traumatic weapons, manufacturers until 2012 regularly announced new models. However, in accordance with legislative amendments, manufacturers of traumatic small arms are prohibited from designing and producing new models. Existing “injuries” are allowed for sales. One of them is the TTK traumatic gun from AKBS. There is speculation that “trauma” is a shortened version of TT. Judging by the reviews, many consumers associate it with the legendary TT pistol. Information about the device, characteristics of the TTK and consumer reviews can be found in the article.
On the options for "injury" AKBS
The manufacturer has designed three versions of the TTK pistol:
- The first is fully developed on the basis of the Tula-Tokarev firearm. "Injury" is a shortened model in which the manufacturer tried to maintain an external resemblance to a military counterpart. According to experts, the developers used this version to test all the technologies that they planned to implement in the final version of the TTK pistol.
- In the second version, the handle was copied from a real TT. The “trauma” itself was created from scratch.
- The third option is characterized by a modified handle, which, according to the manufacturer, is more convenient.
In 2012, an arms exhibition was held in Germany, at which AKBS exhibited “injuries” of the second and third versions. Overview of the TTK pistol - below.
Description
Developing the TTK, the designers tried to create not only high-quality and reliable traumatic weapons, but also quite beautiful. The “trauma” was designed based on the old TT combat pistol.
Judging by the numerous reviews of the owners, the rifle units for self-defense turned out with a modern and effective design. There are no extra parts in the case. The TTK pistol is a good example of the fact that not only quality, but also appearance is important for the “injury”. Using weapon steel in the production of all components for the TTK, the manufacturer was able to improve the quality and service life of the product. In order for the rifle unit to be certified as traumatic, the designers had to equip it with a frame, a bolt, a barrel and guides under the return spring, completely made from scratch. All other parts are borrowed from this TT.
Sights are unregulated entirely and front sight. The peculiarity of the sighting mechanism is that it excludes fast shooting from close range. The trigger guard is equipped with a special latch, with which you can quickly remove the clip.
How does it work?
The TTK used an automation circuit that provides for recoil with a free shutter. There is no fuse in the “injury”. The barrel is removable, which is uncharacteristic for most traumatic pistols. Weapons with a smooth barrel channel, equipped with one pin, with a spring-loaded inertial drummer. Even if there is ammunition in the chamber, the trigger can be moved forward to the extreme position.
However, in the presence of a cartridge, the interaction of the striker with the capsule will not occur. The location of the slide delay was the left side of the pistol frame. The gate clutch is missing. The gate disconnector is equipped with a recess with a modified shape, so that the entire automatic system works smoothly.
About ammunition
Shooting from the TTK is conducted by 10x32 cartridges. According to experts, their appearance was a breakthrough in the production of ammunition. The caliber is as close as possible to the warhead, which has a positive effect on increasing the power allowed by the law. In 2012, due to bans on the production of new traumatic rifle units, restrictions also affected cartridges. Designers AKBS considered two options for ammunition. It was originally planned to use 9 mm RA for the TTK. However, soon the gunsmiths decided to produce cartridges for their traumatic pistol on their own. For this reason, TTK owners will not be able to acquire charges from other manufacturers. Judging by the reviews, this is not a problem, since 10x32 are available in every weapons store. Good quality and reasonable price explain the high demand for these charges among fans of traumatic weapons.
About the merits
According to experts, TTK has all the qualities necessary for "injury". Due to the fact that the non-combat model is much shorter and thinner than a real TT, it can be worn covertly. There are no protruding parts in the case, so the TTK does not cling to clothes. Judging by the reviews of the owners, the “injury” is very convenient to maintain.
An important advantage of this infantry unit is its low price: the TTK 10x32 pistol can be purchased for 35 thousand rubles.
About the disadvantages
According to experts, the handle of the combat TT is not adapted for comfortable use. Its main disadvantage is a tilt at a right angle, due to which it is impossible to shoot from the gun offhand, since the barrel channel will be lower than the target. Given this fact, the owners of these "injuries" experts recommend practicing at the training ground: for the effective use of pistols with a similar design feature, you must have the appropriate skills.
Judging by the reviews of the owners, the TTK is equipped with an inconvenient gate delay lever. Trying to exclude clinging of “trauma” to clothes, the lever was made too small. However, you can get used to this feature over time. The trigger is also not very convenient, since it does not have a smooth ride.
About technical specifications
- The total length of the traumatic gun is 18 cm, the barrel is 10.1 cm.
- TTK height - 13 cm, width - 2.8 cm.
- Shooting is carried out by 10x32 caliber cartridges.
- The TTK pistol is equipped with a magazine with a capacity of 8 ammunition.

TTK-F: Description
At the factory of LLC Fortuna, they produce a TTK-F pistol for 10x32. The basis for the "injury" was the military Tula-Tokarev. The differences are only in some design changes. For the manufacture of all parts used high-strength weapon steel.
With the exception of cheeks and handles, the design of the traumatic product does not contain light alloys or plastic. According to experts, the main advantage of the TTK-F lies in its barrel: it is steel and with thick walls, for which weakening is not provided. In the upper part of the barrel channel is equipped with a partition. Due to its smoothed shape during shooting, damage and deformation of propelled equipment are eliminated. In other words, a whole ball moves toward the goal. If necessary, clean the “injury”, judging by the reviews of the owners, there are no difficulties in this. Traumatic weapons are equipped with a removable trigger mechanism, which is easy to disconnect from the pistol frame. TTK-F is equipped with a single-action trigger and obsolete, as in a combat TT, descent. Locking the trigger mechanism, namely the shutter, trigger and trigger, is carried out by pre-cocking the trigger. According to the owners, it needs to be cocked until a characteristic click is heard. Pistol clips, as well as in the TTK, are designed for 8 charges. However, unlike the previous version, the TTK-F has a stationary front sight and an adjustable rear sight: it can be moved in any direction. Thanks to this design feature, the process of shooting "trauma" has become much easier. A traumatic rifle product is completed with a passport, a brush for caring for the barrel, a holder and a special drift, with which it is easy to disassemble the gun. The cost of TTK-F is up to 31 thousand rubles.
