The Zastava CZ99 was designed in former Yugoslavia, now Serbia, by Zastava. The pistol is based on the design of the [[, although it does have many unique features not seen in these two weapons.

Design

The Serbian Zastava CZ99 is not to be confused with the Czech manufacturer Česká Zbrojovka. The CZ in CZ99 stands for "Crvena Zastava", meaning "Red Flag". The CZ99 was designed in 1989 to replace the Zastava M57 in Yugoslavian military service. The CZ99's appearance and slide design was largely inspired by the SIG-Sauer P226, but the design's ambidextrous controls are based on the Walther P88. In 2005, Zastava discontinued the CZ99 and replaced it with the CZ999, an improved version of the design with a more durable slide made out of machined steel. In 2007, Zastava introduced the EZ9, a compact version of the design with a larger ring hammer and picatinny rail for mounting lights and accessories.
