A .308 AK-47: Zastava M77 Overview
A .308 AK-47: Zastava M77 Overview
In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves is at Zastava USA to discuss the new import of the Zastava M77 rifle. This .308 rifle is very similar to Zastava’s flagship M70 AK-type rifle and almost identical to the Zastava M90 .223 rifle, with a few differences other than the obvious caliber difference. Note that per the video, furniture that works with the M70 and M90 should also work with the M77. Zastava now offers three calibers of AK to the US civilian market, including 5.56mm, .223, and of course 7.62×39. Check out this overview for a description of the features and accessories available for this new .308 AK.

Now they should have one in 7.62x54r. Until then, nyet comrade. Mosin is fine
10:13 Or you could just gas the gun correctly from the factory….
I’ve had one for 10 years yall r late 2 the show.
Lower part of the handguard should be shaped for the fingers grip: rounded and ribbed to better fit the fingers, for the better ergonomics.
This way is better lined up in the gun shape, which makes more aesthetical.
Ergonomics is more important
I bought this rifle because of this video and am currently converting M14 magazines to fit due to mag restrictions in my state forbidding me from acquiring High capacity M77 magazines. Thanks to the conversion, I can use my old M14 magazines for it flawlessly (with the benefit of the magazines acting as a BHO on empty.)
I didn’t notice till the second minute it’s 308!!!!!!what I’m going crazy lol that’s awesome and it’s zastava
Great company.
Adjustable rubber polymer stock with cheek riser ,wtf I can’t believe the setup is all stock,these parts are crazy good
This gun could be ALOT MORE beautiful then it current but HWAT A BRILLIANT IDEA.. Definitkey a worthy competitor for HCAR.
Can anyone tell me if this uses a standard ak trigger or does it require a larger set up. Wanting to swap with alg
Pick one up before the price goes up.
If the FN FAL and the AKM had a baby
that rail mount, holosun, and magnifier hate that recoil lol that being said how many hoops do i gotta hop to get one in NY!?
BIG YUGO CRAP!!!!
That is a sexy rifle at a great price.
Guns.Not Politics.Awesome
I KNEW. I was just sitting in class when the thought of a 308. Winny AK passed my mind and I knew some crazy bastard out there had to have done it before… And I was right
Looks over gased
Balkan hitters at its finest.
love the look of the gun but not the stock it looks like shit xD but its probably comfy tho
It’s interesting how civilian Zastava is praised abroad, but for domestic market we are offered utter garbage.
I love the gun, but it looked to as if the sight mount moved during each shot in opening of this video.
I LOVE AK ….YOU CAN’T GO WRONG.WITH THEM.
Adjustable gas block nice
zastava needs to work on quality control, poor incomplete finish, poorly set rivets, over tightened pistol grip to the point it bent the grip plate, crappy cheap no name plastic fore grip instead of the high quality hogue one, better look yours over with a fine tooth comb before you complete the transaction, mags are usa made top notch quality fit and finish, but you can’t find them in stock anywhere
Looks badass 🇺🇸🤝🇷🇸 ✌
When the bolt carrier is chromed like that the action is faster and smoother less recoil etc just due to how well chrome can stay lubricated and greasy ,that’s the part I noticed right away
Zastava rules. Seriously. Big .308 fanboi here. .308 f@cks all.
in germany we have the zastave m2010 model line with a 308 and 223, but its its kinda weird giving the same name but different caliber for it, but the 308 would be the m77 and the 223 the m21
they also cost the same price whats weird, but those are 1000€ rifles
affordable rifles for hunting and sporting
i like those, i looking forward to buy one
$1400 is great price
The Serbians have the most powerful AK in existence.
Wonder if anyone is making wood furniture for it? Or if any existing furniture out there would fit it
Chamber it in 7.62x54r and I’ll buy one.
13:20 MAXON’S!!!!! My 2nd home!
My only complaint is I wish they’d review the guns as they come. This clearly has a considerable amount of aftermarket additions.
Slap some wood back on it, and call it good.
I allways de 922R my rifles. Example I would call century and I could get a piston, FCG and bakelite grip delivered for under 10 dollars, would buy a NOS piston rivet from apex.
Would buy a metal stamp that said US.
Buy surplus good laminated furniture and a muzzel device.
Refinish the trigger to its crisp and stamp US, grind off the weld marks as they weld on the pistons then remove it, put a Romanian piston in and rivet it as it’s really important the piston has some wiggle for reliability.
Scribe us on the piston.
Get a surplus T nut and heat up the US stamp put it on the bakelite handguard, and put some black ink on the stamp for the butstocks and upper and lower handguard.
Put on a surplus usualy muzzle but as the scoop does not seem to do anything maybe only in full auto I have some with the scoop and some 74s with a surplus break.
I really like what Zastava USA is going I got my M70 and it’s amazing, century was pinching penny’s and it made them awfull now they are the best AKs out their.
I only had a month before I had to leave the US and probably can’t come back for another 6 months but I have a Zastava 5.56 AK at my FFL and I plan on getting the M77.
I have a older M77 so can sell it.
Not interested in the M91 as I have a converted vepr.
Would love to see them make a M76 8mm
I have a preban M76 with no US made parts and I modified an MG15 mag so I can have a big 8mm AK that holds 27 rounds and I love it so much.
I think the M91 is being made as it’s needed in a war right now lol.
I also hope Zastava could make some more Mauser rifles for hunting as they are great quality.
I know they will import the .50bmg black arrow soon.
I have no idea if they still make the MG42 clones but a semi version in the US in 8mm or .308 would sell like crazy.
It would be nice to see some more Yugo toks they also made a realy nice Sig clone in 9mm
Is it just me, or is that whole rifle flexing in the slow-mo? Is that normal? Looks like something is loose. Compared to an AR at least.
I want one. Love my M70. Edit: now I have one. Great rifle.
Why the hel is the same rifle in 7.62x54r (m91) twice as expensive as the one in .308? (M77). They are similiar enough there is no way production costs that much more.
That sight mount was bouncinggg
LOVE MY M77!!!! LOVE ZASTAVA!!!
The only thing I could focus on was his finger slapping the trigger 🤣
Cool looking gun. I like those handguards. Having to change them, ups the price. It’s still a cool gun, but they should ship it with those handguards.
Just curious, but why an M77 instead of a SA58 (FAL)?
Did anyone see how the optic moved around when shooting
i swear to god if nikita adds this to tarky, its going to be the next rat gun
I picked one up around 10 years ago
BS.its like every AK.nothing changing
dope love Zastava I have the M70 and Z92
