The Zastava M77 is a 7.62x51mm battle rifle and light machine gun developed and manufactured by Zastava Arms. [2] It is a Kalashnikov pattern rifle based on the Zastava M70 .

The next postwar production rifle was the 7.92×57mm Mauser Model 1948 based on the Model 24. The production of air rifles and sporting rifles on the basis of the M48 rifle started in 1953. In 1954, Zastava started the production of shotguns and small bore rifles, as well as the 7.9 mm M53 ¨Sarac¨ machine gun.
The Yugoslavian version of the RPK, the Zastava M72, is a longer barreled member of the M70 family and is the weapon upon which the Tabuk is based. The barrel length of the Iraqi Tabuk rifle is 23.6 inches – slightly longer and thinner than a Yugoslavian M72 barrel, but much longer than a traditional AKM or the M70 (16.25 inches).

A semi automatic variant is produced in the United States using original parts kits with a US made receiver and barrel. M72AB1 - Same as the M72B1, but with a folding stock and detachable bipod. Al Quds - Iraqi Licensed produced variant.
Often the M48 was used as the basis for a sniper rifle, drilled and tapped for the ZRAK 4x32 telescopic sight and mounts. [6] However, other than an experimental batch of approximately 4000 rifles, no official M48 sniper rifle was ever fielded by the Yugoslav Army. [7] Egypt bought M48As to diversify its suppliers in the 1950s. [8]
