Features

The Zastava Arms USA M72 RPK 7.62x39 rifle is a heavy-duty AK-pattern platform built to replicate the classic RPK light machine gun configuration with enhanced durability and sustained-fire capability. Chambered in 7.62x39, it features a 21.5-inch ribbed barrel designed to aid in heat dissipation during extended shooting sessions, complemented by integrated cooling fins for improved thermal management. A factory-installed bipod adds stability for supported firing positions, reinforcing its role as a precision-oriented, heavy-profile AK variant.
Finished with distinctive Serbian red wood furniture, the M72 delivers a traditional aesthetic paired with rugged construction. A left-side optic rail allows for the mounting of compatible optics, expanding its versatility beyond iron sight use. Built on a reinforced receiver to handle increased firing demands, this RPK-style rifle offers a combination of historical design, durability, and practical performance for collectors, range use, and enthusiasts seeking a robust AK platform.
