Zastava M91 - Any Hands-On Experience From Folks Here?

[IUHoosier429]

This has been a long-time "bottom of the list but still on my list" gun for me, one that is really starting to creep up that list. I've been around PSLs; SVDs/NDMs don't really scratch my itch for the price; and don't get my started on the HD-18 debacle...

Has anyone here had any real-world experience with the M91? Even if it's simply shooting a buddy's gun versus owning one yourself ... what did you like? Dislike?

Before you try to talk me out of it, know that I'm not really interested in other calibers or platforms. I fully realize there are far better trigger pulls for ~$3,000, but I'm really only into AK variants and eastern bloc military military-style wares. And the M91 seems to have stayed pretty steady price-wise over the last few years. I only see it going up in price, not down.

Thanks in advance for any hands-on anecdotes.

If you are super into AKs, this would be really cool to have. Doubt the price would go down much, but prices on anything AK related have certainly risen in recent years

With PSL's going for $2K and NDM's going for $7K......the 91's going for $3K is ok - as for the military collector it is an actual factory made version of a real foreign issue DMR. But while the NDM is actually a purpose-built rifle, the PSL and M91's are just basically a longer AK. Tough to spend $3K on an AK.
