Zastava 7.62x39mm AK Rifle with 16.5" Barrel, Magpul Zhukov Stock - Black

The Zastava 7.62x39mm AK rifle with 16.5" barrel and Magpul Zhukov stock delivers proven AK reliability in a modern, user-friendly package built for hunters, sport shooters, and serious riflemen who want dependable performance without unnecessary complexity. Zastava Arms has spent decades refining this platform—it's battle-tested across multiple continents and now available as a semi-automatic sporting rifle that handles 7.62x39 ammunition with the same rugged durability that made the design legendary.

Built on a cold hammer-forged, chrome-lined barrel with a 1.5mm bulged trunnion receiver, this rifle is engineered to perform in harsh conditions and handle sustained fire without flinching. The semi-automatic gas-operated system cycles reliably whether you're at the range, hunting in the field, or testing yourself at distance. You get a 30-round detachable magazine standard, adjustable front and rear iron sights for quick target acquisition, and a bolt hold-open notch on the safety selector—details that separate a working rifle from a toy.

The modern ergonomics matter too. The extended M-LOK handguards give you mounting options for lights, lasers, or accessories, while the Magpul pistol grip and Magpul Zhukov stock transform the platform into something that handles and feels contemporary without abandoning the fundamentals that make AKs tick. At 8.2 pounds and 35 inches overall, it's portable enough for field work but solid enough to shoot all day. A Zastava Arms USA scope mount comes ready to accept optics if iron sights aren't your preference. Whether you're building a hunting rifle, adding a reliable intermediate cartridge platform to your collection, or looking for a 7.62x39 that actually works, this is a no-excuses choice.
