[Partner 2025] Zastava Arms Showcases New Sniper Rifle In .338LM

Recently, Serbian company Zastava Arms presented an entire array of new firearms at the Partner 2025 exhibition in Belgrade: the light machine gun chambered in 6.5 Grendel and the M24 modular rifle chambered in 5.56×45.That alone would have been newsworthy, but there was more.In the same display, the company showcased a new semi-automatic sniper rifle chambered in 338 Lapua Magnum.This is an entirely new design which doesn’t have a designation yet.While Zastava manufactured 50 caliber bolt action sniper rifles, namely “Black Arrow” and “Black Spear”, for decades, and recently added to their product line a bolt-action rifle M07M in 338 LM, they never demonstrated semi-automatic rifles in those calibers.
