The Zastava M76 is a semi-automatic sniper rifle designed by Zastava Arms. Based on the Zastava M70-series of rifles, the M76 is built on a RPK-style receiver that utilizes the long-stroke piston action of the AK-47. Unlike similar designs such as the SVD Dragunov or the FPK / PSL Sniper Rifle which are chambered in 7.62x54mm R, the M76 is chambered in the 8x57mm IS (7.92x57mm Mauser) round. The M76 was the standard sniper rifle of the Yugoslavian National Army and remains in service with the successor states of the former Yugoslavia; the M76 is also reportedly license-manufactured in North Korea as the Jeogyeok-Bochong.
