Tokarev Svt-40 Capacity
The SVT-40 is chambered in 7.62x54mmR and feeds from 10-round detachable box magazines. These magazines are specific to the SVT-40 and were often specific to the gun as well as magazine manufacturing capabilities were limited during the rifle’s production.
Tokarev Svt-40 Feature
The Tokarev SVT-40 is a semi-automatic rifle made by the Soviet Union that runs on a short-stroke gas piston operated tilting-bolt action. The rifle is built with a barrel that measures approximately 24.6 inches long that is topped with range-adjustable iron sights. A flash hider caps the end of the barrel to cut down on the amount of flash delivered by the 7.62x54mmR’s muzzle blast.
Tokarev Svt-40 Ergonomics
The SVT-40 offers a very traditional rifle setup with a more ergonomic stock over the Mosin Nagant. The controls include a trigger safety located behind the trigger, a magazine release between the trigger guard and magazine well, and a right-side mounted reciprocating charging handle.
Tokarev Svt-40 Mobility
The SVT-40 measures slightly over 48 inches long making it longer than other standard infantry rifles of WWII, however its unloaded weight comes in at 8.5 pounds, approximately one half of a pound lighter than its competitors. The semi-automatic capabilities of the SVT-40 allowed troops to provide superior fire suppression allowing for more successful fire-and-move tactics.
Tokarev Svt-40 Fit-N-Finish
The SVT-40 can be found today in museums and in the hands of private collectors. The chrome-lined bolts and blued steel components usually have a heavy film of cosmoline along with the wood stocks, however the condition of each rifle can vary as much as the quality of the magazines they use.
