There’s more of us than you might think. Proud ZPAP and M57A owner here; don’t intend sell either, ever. Fine weapons and great company. No problems with my ZPAP but did have a couple of issues with my M57A, and Zastava USA took very good care of me. Customer service is second to none. Anyway wishing you well over there in Serbia. I hear it’s a beautiful country. Hope I can visit someday.

Have been waiting for this one. Your methods have made my life a lot easier in the maintinence department. Thank you, as always, for sharing your knowledge!

Have one and love it. Mine is fully modernized with a yugo magpul folder and midwest industries forend for force multipliers. Am a lanky guy and love adjustable length of pull. Have well over a thousand rounds through it without any failures with steel ammo. Above average accuracy as well.

Hope you don't regret getting rid of this one! I would have at least waited until the sunset of the Serbian export ban to see what happens with these. They are such nice AK's and their uniqueness means there will always be a place for one in my collection even when I have other AK rifles

I have one of these with the side-folding stock. It is indeed a fantastic AK in every way 👍Thank you, sir, for another excellent and informative video. Best of luck to you and the family.

Love this one video, your dog, your love to your dog, the AK47 Zastava M70, and your great work about guns. THANK YOU brother.

I'm thankful God blessed us with a wonderful person like you to share the knowledge you share with us and hello to Mr Benny he looks happy and healthy great to see you both doing well god bless looking forward to seeing you guys again soon love the videos

What beautiful and brilliant in-depth review of this rifle. Couldn’t ask for more. 👍

God bless you , Benny and the family. Always very informative with your videos , thanks and keep up the good work and enjoy each day .

Got one just like it after watching your 1st review and love it.

Love the videos you and Benny make❤

Really appreciate your videos and knowledge! I am not a Russian rifle fan but thank you for the video, I do know how the collecting gets and I understand why you must have wanted it!

Mind that telegram scam.

Looks like a great AK rifle that is well built. I have the Molot Vepr FM-AK47-11 rifle that is built on the same standard as the military RPK rifle. The Vepr AK47 rifle is more reinforced than the standard stamped AKM rifle. I would recommend the Vepr AK47 as one the best AK rifles, but the only issue is that the Molot plant burned down and they are selling them at ridiculous prices. Looks like the Zastava ZPAP M70 AK 47 made improvements to the design as well. From what I can see the sample that you have is in excellent condition and would make an excellent addition to anyone's collection.

Fantastic demonstration!!! Thank You

A couple of fine treasures . Zastava & Benny .

Hey i just got my new Zpap Underfold thanks for showing me how to take it apart and put it back together

Thanks for the video and the breakdown I just picked one up.

I love watching your channel. You are so knowledgeable

I’m glad you were able to sell that, you are a wonderful person and remind me of my dad who loved guns and had a great appreciation of all guns.he had his favorites too

Nice AK sir! I’ve got a SLR95 bought several years ago it’s more of a safe queen lol maybe had 15 rounds through it. I bought from a friend NIB and low low SN. Always enjoy your videos keep up the great content thanks!

Hope everything is alright. We love you man. Fine specimen you’re selling

Great rifle and video as always.

Thank you for the education

I wish I could like this video 1,000 times. I keep watching it all the time.

All - This is the one to watch and learn 👍

Benny almost lasted as long as me. Good to see ya ole buddy. Hope the AK gets some big money.

Great video and content. I have one but haven't fired it yet because of acquiring enough ammo for a range day has been hit or miss where I'm at.

You have great taste in firearms. I love the M70 AK.

Nice Ak but the reason i watched was because Benny was there ❤️ he’s gorgeous. You both are really cool 😎

Will watch the video later but the Zastava AK's are some of the best import AK's in my opinion. They are tanks

400 yards is generally considered to be effective range. Typical 7.62x39 mm bullet fired from it is supersonic up to about 500 yards

Owen Zastava Pitt, Combat-Accountant. This fictional character was named after his father's weapon (Zastava) that he used in Vietnam that saved his life on a few occasions. The book being "Monster Hunter International." Beautifully written, great story, great character development, factual weapons depictions and oh so humorous!

Great video thanks

M70's are nice. They are even nicer with a surplus yugo grip 😀

I’d love to have that my friend. I wouldn’t even want to shoot it cause it would be very special coming from a legend such as yourself.

Wish I saw this before I broke it down the first time, especially using the bolt carrier to flip the gas tube release. Did see that in the manual.

Great presentation! Best to ya',,,,!

I bought this beautiful rifle because of your video. I honestly wish I had waited a bit, as I paid nearly $1100 after tax and transfer, but they can be found for $899 now. Regardless, BEAUTIFUL rifle and a joy to shoot

Excellent rifle. Got one myself with polymer furniture. Would never sell it. My weapon of choice in the event of the doo-doo impacting the air conditioning apparatus. I’ve read that in Serbia, the M70 AK was nicknamed the “Housekeeper”…because if you had one, you could keep your house!

If we had the time, we'd drive out there & buy that ~ this guy is the salt-of-the-earth

I am out of the running here seeing as I already own a Zpap m70. Great Gun very nice and sturdy. It's a bit heavy but that is to be expected with that variant considering how beefed up it is, It's almost an RPK when you look at its specs. The only other issue is that I've found I like shooting my SKS much more so I never want to waste my 7.62x39 on it.

@salninethousand2496

Same for me: SKS > AK semi auto. Last round hold open (though the ZPAP M70 does too with the right mag, but most all AK47s don't), better safety and I actually prefer top loading, esp. loading single rounds. I have an early '50s Tula armory, all numbers matching. However I agree with the sentiment in the video: ZPAP M70 is probably the highest quality civilian (semi auto) production AK47 available.

Does it have a shepards hook (paper clip wire) inside the receiver or something more stout (Krebs retaining clip perhaps)? Nice gun. You didn't mention that the optics mount on the left side is proprietary to Yugo AKM's. The earlier version of this gun did not have bulged trunnion nor the chrome lined barrel. You got the better one. Someone is going to enjoy a nice gun. 🙂

I kinda looked forward to another shooting video on this AK but it's understandable. Thanks for the video's god bless.

If only we Canadians could partake!

Benny is a sweet dog.

You have two best things, Zastavin M70 and Breton :)

The M70 zpap is my favorite rifle I own. I would never sell mine in a million years. You should keep it!!!

I have me one of those…. Did a chamber cast of it and it’s the weirdest looking chamber I ever seen.

I got one and my Albanian friend says it is garbage 😂😂😂 but I love that rifle, my is a under folder.

I would love to have it but I have so many guns as it is. My wife would give me the evil eye if I brought another one home! That is a very clean rifle though.😲

Iam not sellen my stuff it's a labor of love taken care of em I retire in less then 5 years iam n it for the long haul that's what I hate about the surplus corrosive ammo one or hundreds got to be taken all apart n cleaned well

How much did u end up selling it for? Thanks love your channel

Keep it. The bans are coming. At least keep it for barter down the road. Worth big bucks if SHTF.

When Michael Kalashnikov visiting Serbia he shot from Zastava M-70 he then stated that he couldn't believe how soft Zastava M-70 was shooting!!! He said this rifle is mot like other AK variants!!!🤨🤔🤌

Milled receiver or stamped?

It's pronounced ZA-sta-va in Serbian. (Stress on the first syllable.) It means "flag" or "banner" in Serbian. In Russian it's pronounced za-STA-va. (Stress on the second syllable.) In Russian it means a "small fortificaiton." How's Bennie doing? He's a cute little fella!

Looking good guys!

Hi Benny

should call it the Benny Hill show

Sir I wish I could buy that beautiful AK from you. Unfortunately I currently reside in communist Connecticut, for the next 6 years anyway. I am moving to NH when I retire in 6 years. Then I can live free, and own beautiful firearms such as that AK!

Anyone know what sling he had on that?

What else ya got?

Looks like a very nicke AK. How would say it compares to a PolyTech Legend AK with a forged reciever from back ini the late 1980s?

@GunBlue490

11 ай бұрын

I view guns by only two parameters. I must like their appearance, and they must work reliably and accurately. In recent years, folks have been taught to believe that forgings reign superior. If a stamped or investment cast manufacturing technique has been proven to be rugged and reliable with no weakness over years of continuous use, I see no reason to look to a forged version. I've shot those Poly Tech guns, which are very nice (see that video) but the Zastava is distinctly superior in heft and ruggedness. Stamped steel is not weak. In fact, it has resiliency that takes serious abuse. They can flex and spring back under repeated stress, while forgings simply break. Stampings are used in submarine hulls, excavator buckets, truck frames, and snow plows. The Zastava has many forged parts where such toughness is required, but the receiver is stamped steel, where that's the superior metal for the job.

@@GunBlue490 Thanks for the reply and information, I agree completely. Thee wood furniture on your AK is definitely far superior to the wood on the PolyTech. When I purchased the rifle in the late 1980s I felt it was the best available at that time.

Hey Larry, I purchased my Zastava M70 with the used / battle field pick up furniture, however it didn't have the sling mount on butt stock. A machine shop is charging $60, to mill the stock, to mount sling swivel. Anyway slings can be found at most gun shows. I paid $10 for the correct Yugo sling. Good Luck.

Is the muzzle supposed too be wobbly on this aka? I purchased this model but it got some what damaged when it shipped the barrel/muzzle poked out the box im not sure if they all come wobbly or it’s because it popped out the box. If anyone who owns this model could you let me know would be much appreciated.

Yes most timed AK muzzle devices index off of the spring loaded pin at the front of the front sight base and are not torqued down on the threads. Some wobble is normal

Firepower superiority is not semi automatic fire.. Firepower superiority was being trained when I was in service starting in 1970.

Sorry you have to start thinning the herd. But I understand it. And I’d love to throw my hat in the ring and try and get it, and or any others your may be letting go of. Unfortunately as far as cash flow I can’t. But even if I had the cash and could spare it, I could t own any like this one because I live in the Democrat run and controlled hole that is Illinois because they passed HB 5471. It’s in the courts and the Illinois appellate court which just heard oral arguments on June 29th, 2023, will most likely rule 2-1 in the states favor and it will likely head to SCOTUS and I can only hope they’ll take the case?! In advance, congrats to anyone who gets this or any other if the fine and I’m sure we’ll taken care of firearms that gunblue decides to let go of! And seeing your dog’s interaction with you,!really made me miss mine. :(
