Tokarev Model 1927 (Pistolet-pulemyot Tokareva obraztsa 1927 goda) is a Soviet experimental submachine gun designed by Fyodor Tokarev (the "father" of TT-33). The SMG was chambered for 7.62mm Nagant cartridge that was the only domestic-manufactured pistol/revolver cartridge in the USSR at that time. Unlike the original revolver version, the cartridge used for the SMG had a crimped nose. The SMG was a typical blowback-operated weapon. Two triggers were used for selective fire. About 500 pieces of M1927 were produced.
A civilian carbine version was also developed, which was not included in serial production. Other experimental versions included the M1928 and the M1931 SMGs, produced in very limited quantities. The first had a split grip and stock in the style of Thompson, and the second received a cooling jacket, externally approaching the PPD. Part of M1928 and all M1931 were chambered under 7.62×25mm Tokarev.
Extensive field trials were held until 1933, competing with many domestic designs, as well as with Vollmer VMP, Rheinmetall MP19 and Thompson, and at last the SMG was considered a failure, losing in the end to the new design of Degtyarev, which will be adopted as the PPD-34.
