The shooters that have them are those who know how to make them!

Pilkington's probably has some parts - and Larry Carter has parts (i.e. Larry's Guns).

About 18 months ago I bought 2 TOZ 35 (not 35M) from MGS. I bought one that "functioned" and one that did not function. I wanted to learn about the intricacies of the TOZ. I bought 2 parts for the non functioning gun at $40.00 each. They ARE scarce. I believe that Larry Carter bought Don Nygord's parts. There is no doubt that the functioning gun was the better bargain of the two.

It is really strange that spare parts are so scarce for a pistol that is so widely used (the second most used free pistol with the CM84E) ?

Where do the top shooters who use this pistol get their spare parts ?

I cannot imagine that people shooting at Olympic Games, World Champ and World Cup cannot get easily spare parts for their pistol, at least spare firing pin and firing pin spring !

It went out of production circa 1996. There's not a lot to break on a TOZ, but if something does fail, you could be up the creek.

Contacted Pilk and Carter.

Neither had the part I needed, but Carter said he was receiving more parts next month.

I think I'll go with "Guest 20" and see if I can make it. Thank Bacchus for Dremel tools!

I frequently give thanks to Bacchus, but never for tools ;-)

What part do you need? Some folks have come up with innovative ways to make parts.
