Zastava arms Serbia

[proka89]

I am opening this topic to present to you one of the most important companies of the Serbian defense industry (Since i am the only active member from Serbia )

Zastava Arms is the cradle of Serbian industry. By a decision rendered in 1851 the Gun Foundry was moved from Belgrade to Kragujevac and in 1853 first cannon barrels were cast. This ended the efforts of the Principality of Serbia to have its own production of arms and equipment.

Gun Foundry in Kragujevac, the center of the Principality of Serbia, developed quickly. The Gun Foundry had first steam engines, first electric light, first technical school, first quality system and at Large World Fair in Paris, in 1889, the Gun Foundry won several medals.

Before the Second World War, the factory was a real industrial giant, with almost twelve thousand employees and ten thousand machines.

After the war, the factory started the production of rifle M48, and today Zastava Arms produces modern small arms. The factory continued the production of artillery weapons - anti-aircraft cannons. Together with military program, the factory developed the program of hunting and sporting weapons.

Years of experience in the field of development of products, technology and capacities created conditions for the transfer of technology to other countries.

It's important to know that company suffered some heavy blows in recent history. First they were hit with sanctions, which took their place in guns market. And after that they suffered more damage in the bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999 (Factory was practically destroyed). But still they didn't give up, and now they are back on the market, exporting more than 40 000 000 $ per year, mostly in US (the irony).

Absolute hit on US market is Zastava PAP semi automatic rifle. Only in this year they sold more than 90 000 of them.

They are sold in many variants (as Krinkov style pistol, with polymer stock, wooden stock...). Price in the US is between 700 and 900 $.

They are also producing and exporting some great hunting rifles, which are really cheap if you are in the US.

This is nice video review about two of them:

Remington was for example selling some Zastava rifles under their own name, and i think that tells us something about quality of Zastava arms rifles. For example:

Zastava MP22R (Remington Model Five) .22 Bolt Action Rifle

One more popular product of Zastava arms iz pistol CZ 99, which is i believe really popular in Pakistan. more modern version is EZ9:

It's often called poor man's Sig. And here are some new products from Zastava:

@proka89 thanks for sharing - well CZ999 Scorpion was sold like a hot cake and has been primary weapon for Self Defence as well as range use - recently they stopped importing CZ999 S and started the import of EZ9 (CZ 999S with rails) and EZ9 Compact.

EZ9 is also hot - infact I will be buying one soon inshallah by next month.

By the way Zastava M93 Black arrow is the most powerful sniper rifle in the Far Cry 3

"No rifle hits harder at long range than this .50 calibre beast. Simply put, it kills what it hits."
— in-game handbook

"The Z93 is the perfect weapon for when you really want to kill someone. This Yugoslavian bolt-action rifle is chambered in .50BMG, which is a bullet large enough to kill a T-Rex or explode a watermelon in Russia on webcam."
— Survival Guide

The final sniper rifle to be unlocked, the "Z93," is a Zastava M93 "Black Arrow" .50 BMG anti-material rifle. Despite being used in a couple of the later missions on the North island, it only unlocks in the store on the South island, where it is used by Privateer snipers. It is able to mount a suppressor, extended magazine, enhanced zoom or illuminated reticle, and can have three modifications added, though it cannot mount the two scope options together. Easily the most powerful of the sniper rifles, it is the only one able to kill a heavy or flamer soldier in one headshot. The Signature version, "AMR," (presumably "Anti Material Rifle") has an extended magazine and enhanced zoom, and fires incendiary armour piercing rounds.

It's not up to Zastava, someone in Pakistan needs to import them just like the EZ9.

One more review of Zastava PAP Gen II:

There were some feeding issues with the first versions of Zastava PAP rifle, but that was the problem caused by Century arms poor conversion from single stack magazine to double stack magazine.

Zastava M76 Sniper Rifle:

The M76 is similar in concept to the Russian Dragunov SVD sniper rifle, a semi-automatic rifle using a full-power cartridge from a 10-round magazine. However, the M76 is closer to the AK-47/RPK design than the Dragunov, similar to the Romanian PSL. Being derived from the AK design it is simple and reliable, and like other Zastava AK-derivatives it is of high-quality manufacture. Accuracy is typically around 1.5 MOA, which is good for a Kalashnikov design and entirely acceptable for the designated marksman role.
