Zastava Arms CZ999 .40 S&W Full-Size DA/SA Pistol – Chrome-Lined 4.25″ Barrel, Ambidextrous Controls, 10+1 Capacity
The Zastava Arms CZ999 in .40 S&W offers a less common caliber option for this Serbian service-style pistol, pairing a chrome-lined hammer-forged barrel with a forged aluminum-alloy frame. Fully ambidextrous controls, a loaded-chamber indicator, and two restricted-capacity 10-round magazines make this import-marked handgun notable for both shooters and collectors seeking a rugged, SIG-influenced design that stands apart from the more typical 9 mm variants.

Designed and built in Serbia, the CZ999 shares external styling cues with the SIG P226 while borrowing mechanical concepts from the Walther P88. Its forged aluminum-alloy frame keeps weight manageable without sacrificing strength, and the hard-anodized finish resists daily wear.
A 4.25-inch chrome-lined, hammer-forged barrel promotes long service life and corrosion resistance. Chromed locking surfaces further enhance durability when running hotter .40 S&W loads.
Ambidextrous slide-stop/decocker levers and an ambidextrous magazine release allow left- or right-handed operation without modification. The top-mounted loaded-chamber indicator pin and right-grip last-three-round indicator provide immediate visual and tactile status checks.
Fixed, drift-adjustable 3-dot sights offer a clear sight picture, while rear slide serrations aid manipulation. The absence of an accessory rail distinguishes this pistol from later EZ-series updates, preserving the original profile.
Century Arms import marks confirm its U.S. entry point, and the included 10-round double-stack magazines comply with capacity limits in effect at the time of importation.
