Zastava has been building Kalashnikov-pattern rifles in Serbia since the 1960s, and the ZPAP M70 is widely regarded as the best-built AK you can buy new in the United States. The reason is the receiver: a 1.5mm stamped receiver with a bulged front trunnion, a design originally intended for RPK light machine gun duty and dramatically more durable than the standard 1mm AK receiver. Add a chrome-lined, cold hammer-forged barrel and it is a rifle built to outlast its owner. This one is chambered in 7.62x39 with a 16.25-inch barrel and a white camo finish.
