Built in Serbia and imported by Zastava Arms USA, this ZPAPM70 follows the model’s reinforced spec with a stamped 1.5 mm receiver and bulged RPK-style front trunnion. It uses the classic AK long-stroke gas piston system with a rotating bolt and accepts standard double-stack AK magazines for a 30+1 capacity.
The 16.3 in barrel is factory cold hammer forged and chrome lined, with M14x1 LH threads and a detent plunger at the front sight base. Sighting is via a protected front post and an AK tangent rear sight graduated to 1000 m. The gas system uses a 90-degree gas block with an integral front sling loop.
Upgrades include an Archangel adjustable polymer buttstock set to a 12.75 in length of pull, a textured polymer pistol grip, and a TDI-ARMS Z70 M-LOK lower handguard paired with a polymer upper handguard. A vertical foregrip is installed on the lower rail, and an M-LOK Picatinny rail section is included for accessory placement.
Optics mounting provisions come from a hinged railed top cover with a full-length Picatinny rail and an AK Master Mount side rail on the receiver. An ALG-marked trigger is installed. Receiver markings show Zastava Arms USA (Des Plaines, IL) import marks and Zastava Arms Made in Serbia designation.
