@BatteryOaksBilly it's damn nice to see you round these parts, sir. I hope you find all the bakelite you've been looking for. In the meantime, I've been working on a holster for my M92 (brilliant, exalted butthole ATF-defined) pistol so I can practice running some Wizard drills IUHoosier style.

My half-awake self was looking at your picture trying to figure out why that mag looked so weird, before realizing it's a drum!@BatteryOaksBilly it's damn nice to see you round these parts, sir.

I am really looking forward to seeing this.
These have become my favorite over the years. Also have the latest Zastava USA offerings, the one that came out last year and the new one with the 1.5mm receiver....interesting. I'll post more pics when I get a chance, in the meantime and many thanks to @digitalpaladin10:

Top: Built from a parts kit by @digitalpaladin10 and it's a tank!
Middle: The first Zastava USA ZPAP offering last year. I really dig this model as a rifle in general, very well built.
Bottom: The latest Zastava USA ZPAP with bulged trunnion, 1.5mm receiver and chrome lined barrel. It was soaked from the factory and still need to clean it up. I intend to swap the furniture with the surplus I bought from Apex. I will say that upon a thorough inspection, this particular model seems like it was put together in a hurry. Plan on taking it out soon and putting it through the ringer.

The reason not to pick up AKs when in combat.
I have one like Larry's video (minus FA), it's actually a M70B (not to be confused with the stamped M70B1). Then there was the earliest Yugo milled, what we call 'M64' in the USA but was actually the earliest milled M70 or M70A. It has a screw in barrel and the fixed stock has a tang among other differences.
Here is my fixed stock M70B. It's all matching OG barrel and the trenchart is OG to the kit. TRA build. Interesting thing is the 4 'C's usually point outward and translates to 'Only Unity Saves the Serb'. Only one unit, Knindže, turned the C's inward to symbolize Serbs should not turn their backs on each other. The rifle is likely from that unit. The Cyrillic writing translates to 'God Protects Serbs'.
And here is my all matching OG barrel 'M64' or M70A UF built by TRA. It's my go to being so solid and compact.

Thanks man, it's a special rifle. I collect Serbian trenchart and while I have seen some that I am envious of, this is a special piece due to the unit specific artwork.
