Yes. I'm pretty sure they were made by Zastava (Both the Mark X and the Remmy 799) although the reason I bought this wee rifle is it stood out as being a bit less agricultural than any of the Zastavas I have seen

did I spot the cz in circle on yours???

Zastavas made before 2003 will have the cz circle mark and made in Yugoslavia. The standard of finish is much better than later serbia marked ones. They still shoot well though.

the 22s by zastava are also sold as winchester wildcats remington also rebadges them and they are also sold as a james daly in the us as well

One of the advantages of 7.62x39 for those of us who do not reload has been cheap ammo suitable for close range knock downs. Is anyone expecting this price advantage to change now the semis are gone?

Ahhh. A Haurangi head by the look of it. I shot his brother over the roar. I really like that rifle set up and the caliber.

I cant see the barnaul getting dearer and hornady 50 packs shouldnt change dramatically....the USA will still be using similar volume so manufacturers wont change a thing just because our drop in the global bucket has changed to a mini droplet. so no I think it will stay the same...... look at it this way,the price of .223 ammo didnt go down when a whole heap of folks bought AR 15S so no reason it should go up now they are gone.

Unless cunt face brings out a tax on military cal anmunition

just as well we shoot .223remington and .308 winchester instead of 5.65 and 7.62 than isnt it.....

I thought I shot his brother?? To be frank I think most of my stags are his brother Same family in the Tararuas as well. Ha ha. And on a totally unrelated topic Tahr, how is Tilly doing? Do you have a thread on her on this site? Hope she and you are both well.

No "Tilly" thread on this site. Both she and I have seen better years but we are still plodging on. We have shot 142 deer together now.

Back to the topic.
