Further Product Details
Each magazine is sourced as surplus and may exhibit cosmetic wear, such as minor scratches or finish loss, consistent with prior military or police service. Functionality is maintained, making these magazines suitable for range use, field repairs, or as authentic replacements for collectors restoring Zastava M57 pistols. Installation is straightforward—simply insert into the magazine well until it locks into place. Regular cleaning and lubrication are recommended to ensure smooth feeding and reliable operation, especially given the surplus nature of the item.
This magazine is compatible exclusively with the Zastava M57 and may not fit other Tokarev variants without modification due to the M57’s unique grip and magazine release design. Customers in South Africa should ensure compliance with local firearms regulations regarding magazine ownership and capacity. As a surplus product, no manufacturer’s warranty is provided; however, all items are inspected for functional integrity prior to sale. This magazine is an essential accessory for maintaining or enjoying the classic Zastava M57 pistol.
