Used semi automatic pistol chambered in 9mm Parabellum, featuring a striking chrome finish and incredible engraved grips.
This pistol comes from Zastava, one of Europe's oldest and most storied firearms manufacturers. Founded in 1853 in Kragujevac, Serbia, as a cannon foundry, Zastava spent over a century and a half equipping Serbian and Yugoslavian forces with everything from Mauser-pattern bolt-action rifles to iconic AK-47 variants and military sidearms. After the Tito-Stalin split cut off Soviet military aid in the 1950s, Zastava's engineers reverse-engineered and improved upon the classic Russian TT-33 Tokarev to create the Yugoslavian M57 service pistol. In 1987, the Yugoslavian government tasked Zastava with creating a more compact, concealable, and export-friendly sidearm for military and police forces—and the M88 was born.
Often nicknamed the "Baby Tokarev," the M88 took the proven Browning-style locked-breech action and all-steel durability of the M57 and scaled it down into a sleek, 8+1 capacity handgun chambered in modern 9mm. Serial production kicked off in 1988 just before the breakup of Yugoslavia, giving early examples a brief but intense chapter in Balkan military and police history before Zastava transitioned to newer designs and commercial exports.
With its crisp single-action trigger, 3.6-inch barrel, and slim profile, the M88 delivers soft recoil and solid accuracy. This particular example stands out with its bright chrome finish paired with incredible engraved grips that give it unmistakable character. Overall, the pistol is in very nice used condition, showing some expected finish loss and honest handling wear on the chrome.
