Built in Serbia by Zastava Arms, this ZPAPM70 features a stamped steel receiver with a 1.5 mm shell and a bulged RPK-style front trunnion. The long-stroke gas piston system with rotating bolt delivers the classic operating layout and accepts standard double-stack AK-pattern magazines.
The 16.3 in barrel is cold hammer forged and chrome lined. Sights are traditional and practical, with an adjustable post in a hooded front sight base and a tangent rear sight leaf.
Ergonomics are enhanced with a Hogue U.S. rubber-overmolded polymer lower handguard and a TangoDown polymer pistol grip. The ATI OPFOR stock adds adjustability and a side-folding mechanism, with an approximate length of pull range from 12.5 to 14.5 inches.
