Zastava has been building Kalashnikov pattern firearms in Serbia for decades, and the ZPAP85 is what happens when that experience gets packed into a pistol-sized platform. Based on the proven M85, this 5.56 NATO AK pistol is built on a 1.5mm stamped steel receiver with a bulged front trunnion, the same heavy-duty construction Zastava puts into its full-size rifles. The 10 inch barrel is cold hammer forged and chrome lined, so it shrugs off high round counts and cheap ammo without complaint. Up front you get a booster-style muzzle device that helps the short gas system cycle reliably, and it threads off to reveal the 14×1 left-hand threads underneath if you want to run something different.
A lot of AK pistols make you fight for a good sight picture or bolt on your own upgrades. Not here. The ZPAP85 comes with a Krinkov-style hinged top cover topped with a Picatinny rail, so mounting a red dot takes minutes instead of a trip to the parts bin. The Krink-style rear sight pairs with a post front for solid irons out of the box, and the bolt hold-open notch on the safety selector is a small touch you will appreciate every range trip. The dark wood handguard gives it that classic AK look and feel, while the hard nickel molly steel bolt carrier keeps the internals running smooth and corrosion resistant.
The factory-installed SB Tactical SBA3 brace adjusts to fit and adds real stability to a platform that is short, quick, and easy to move with. At roughly 6.6 pounds and about 19 inches with the brace collapsed, this thing stores easily and handles even better. It feeds from standard 5.56 AK-pattern magazines and ships with one 30 rounder so you are ready to shoot the day it comes home.
Owners consistently praise these pistols for running reliably right out of the box with fit and finish that punches above the price point. If you want an AK pistol in a caliber that is cheap and easy to find, the ZPAP85 is a hard combination to beat.
It uses 5.56 NATO AK-pattern magazines, not the 7.62×39 mags from a standard AK-47. Zastava's own polymer and metal 5.56 mags run great in it, and it ships with one 30 rounder to get you started. Just make sure any aftermarket mags you buy are specifically for 5.56 AK platforms.
Yes, and it is one of the best features of this model. The hinged Krinkov-style top cover has a Picatinny rail built right in, so you can bolt on a red dot without any side rail mounts or gunsmithing. The hinged design also means you can still field strip the pistol without pulling your optic off.
It is. The booster-style device threads off to expose standard 14×1 left-hand threads, which opens the door to a wide range of AK muzzle devices. Keep in mind the booster helps the short 10 inch gas system cycle consistently, so test your setup if you swap it for something else.
The M70 is Zastava's full-size 7.62×39 platform, while the ZPAP85 shrinks that same rugged construction into a 5.56 NATO pistol with a 10 inch barrel. You still get the 1.5mm stamped receiver and bulged trunnion the brand is known for, just in a much more compact package chambered for affordable, easy-to-find ammo.
