Yugo / Zasatava M-57 Pistol 7.62x25 M57 Yugo

Yugoslavian TTC Tokarev Semi-Auto Pistol Manufactured by Zastava Arms. Adopted in 1957, the M57 was a license-produced copy of the Soviet Tokarev TT pistol, although the M57 had a longer grip to accommodate a larger magazine (holding 9 rounds, versus 8 rounds in the TT). Around 1970[citation needed], Crvena Zastava began production of a similar pistol, the M70A, chambered in 9?19mm Luger. As of 2014, Zastava currently manufactures new production M57s, M70As and M88s. The M57 pistol is short-recoil-operated, locked-breech pistol that uses a Browning-type action with swinging link. The trigger is of single-action type. The controls on the military surplus M57s are identical to those of the American M1911 pattern US Army pistols, which is a factor in their popularity in the United States.
