However, no mention is made regarding Chinese special forces. In addition, Wikipedia says one of Norinco's pistols, NP-58(p226 .40 cal clone) is in use. But there are no embedded citations supporting that claim. If I was arguing against TT-33, I would say there are more modern designs available such as NP-58 sporting more stopping power of the .40 round. On the other hand, If I was to argue for TT-33, I would cite the better penetration the 7.62mm has as well as the fact that it is a design that withstood the test of time.
And that's all the research I could come up with since I can't type Chinese and search Chinese sites.
My vote so far goes to Norinco by a slim margin

Special Forces generally have access to much nicer stuff than the rest of the forces, do you really think they'd choose to use a TT-33?
