Advantages and disadvantages
- The gun is made with good quality and quite reliable. Sorry, we can’t talk about his omnivorous – use ammo with brass casings is not recommended.
- The bore and chamber are chromed. Hunters, there is no consensus about whether this is attributed to the pluses or the minuses, because the coating can peel due to negligence and irregular cleaning, after which the ballistic quality of a trunk in a downswing.
- The chamber only a short – 70 mm, shooting a heightened charges is not recommended.
- Handguard rifle long, it is convenient in cases of emergency, because it is easy to get hand.
- The construction has no plastic parts, all made of metal, and receiver of structural steel, which is what sets the gun in a number of models from the cities of Krasnoyarsk and Izhevsk, where the base of the trigger mechanisms made from polyamide and receivers of aluminum alloy.
- Reliable locking barrel bolt on the oscillating lever provides good ballistic qualities. The battle rifles heap and sharp. However, this quality gave rise to a rather violent impact. TOZ-94 not every arrow on the shoulder.
- Models are available with changeable chokes. And the thread nozzle is arranged on the outer surface of the barrel. That’s a plus, if you need to change the contraction key is not required. And minus at the same time – this thread is easier to mash if the nozzle is not installed.
- Does not accommodate optical sights, in the base model, no rear sight, there is only a bronze “tree stump” flies.
Due to the exclusive use of metal parts the gun is quite heavy – over three pounds, which can be an obstacle to running a whole-day hunts.
There is no mechanism for intercepting bullets in the store. But there is a possibility to empty shop, not distorting the forearm that is much safer because it eliminates accidental discharge.

Owner reviews
The gun has all the generic characteristics of Russian weapons: powerful design with a good safety margin and a medium level of workmanship that requires the owner to fit and finished. After finishing to mind reliability satisfactory.
Recharging requires quite a lot of effort, with the expectation of Rambo or the Terminator. The heap and sharp fight, the return of the strong. The quality of ammo the gun is very picky with the flared sleeves.
