I'm not at all sure Zastave commercial Mausers (or Mauser facilimilies for the purists) with external claw extractor have been available in 7.62 Commie. But I'm not the last word on that. The cartridge was however chambered in what Interarms termed the Mini-Mauser. I have been told by a semi-retired riflesmith that these are copies of the Sako Vixen (IIRC). The extractor on the Mini-Mauser and later the Charles Daly and Remington 799 are nothing like the 98 style extractor.
