Zastava Arms M70 ZPAP Underfolder | 7.62×39 | 16.3″ | 30rd

The Zastava Arms M70 ZPAP underfolder is a semi-automatic AK-pattern rifle chambered in 7.62×39 that pairs traditional M70 construction with an underfolding rear trunnion. It is built on a 1.5mm bulged trunnion receiver and features a cold hammer-forged, chrome-lined barrel for durability in field use. The rifle ships with one 30-round Magpul magazine and adjustable iron sights; it is presented with battle-worn walnut handguards and a Tango Down-style pistol grip.

For optics under $1,000 that suit this platform, consider a low‑power variable optic such as the Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6×24 for general-purpose range work and practical accuracy at common engagement distances.

Typical applications for the M70 ZPAP include sporting/target shooting and medium-game hunting when legal and appropriate.
