Zastava M70B1

This is most probably not a Zastava M70B1 but more probably an AKM; (1) it lacks the typical Zastava grenade launcher sights and (2) it has 2 instead of 3 cooling vents, PeeWee055 (talk) 08:43, 10 May 2017 (EDT)

I agree. I'll grant it does have the smooth receiver like a Zastava or Type 56, but it also certainly has the sights and forend of an AK as noted. StanTheMan (talk) 14:52, 10 May 2017 (EDT)

AKM or VZ58?

I think the AKM in scope view picture is a VZ58. the Front Sight Post looks like a VZ58 Front sight post not an AK front sight. http://www.imfdb.org/images/thumb/0/0c/Mine_402.jpg/600px-Mine_402.jpg

The shape of the magazine seems to match 5.56 (or maybe 5.45) rather than 7.62. Greg-Z (talk) 15:06, 10 May 2017 (EDT)
