This video provides an overview of Soviet military handguns, starting with the Nagant Model 1895 revolver, adopted by the Czarist Russian Army and later the Red Army. It then transitions to the development of semi-automatic pistols, focusing on the TT30 Tokarev, which was refined into the TT33 and served through World War II. The description highlights the perceived flaws of the Tokarev and the subsequent search for a replacement, leading to the adoption of the PM Makarov in the early 1950s. The Makarov served until the collapse of the Soviet Union, with a modernized PMM version appearing in 1990. The video mentions the eventual replacement of the Makarov by the MP-443 Grach in the Russian Federation in 2003. The description also includes promotional links for the "Forgotten Weapons" channel and merchandise.
