BudsGunShop.com - magazine release lever on new M90 Zastava
-
-
I just purchased a new Zastava M90 AK version. I am wondering if anyone else has had this issue before. The magazine that was sent with it is a poly and it is hard to fit the magazine into the rifle. It does go in but after you have to fight with it. It seems that it has a hard time grabbing the lip of the magazine. I don't know if this is a magazine issue or the gun itself. Also, when releasing the magazine. I really have to fight with the magazine release lever to get the mag to come out.

Mark, the polymer mags (especially Gen 3) seem to be very hit or miss. Get some steel Serbian mags. The M90, unlike the M85, cannot come into the country with a double stack magwell. It has to be opened up here. Opening a magwell after the fact instead of just manufacturing it to take double stack mags can cause mag fitment issues sometimes. Some have had luck with the M85 steel mags in the M90. If it's really tight, it will wear in and you’ll have a great fitting mag. I would call Zastava Arms, (847) 250-9727 or email warranty@zastavaarmsusa.com , they will probably send you another magazine that may just work.
