This video explores the Yugoslavian M57 pistol, a domestic development based on the Soviet TT33 Tokarev. The M57 features several improvements over the original Tokarev, including a longer grip for a higher magazine capacity (9 rounds), a captive recoil spring, an improved front sight, a stronger firing pin with better retention, and a magazine disconnect safety. Serial production ran from 1963 to 1982, with approximately 270,000 units manufactured. It served as the standard sidearm for the Yugoslav People's Army and police forces until 1988.
