There was a distributer in Las Vegas that handled them and could order just about anything. Should be in the archive threads.

Check with K-Var as they still have rifles on-hand.
Have heard, though, that K-Var will no longer be importing any of the Zastava products, as they (Zastava) are quite difficult to deal with. Obviously, this is purely speculative but there may be some truth to it based on the fact that Zastava has gone through several U.S. importers in recent years.
I'm becoming more tolerant of intolerant people.

Century Arms is the current importer I think.

May be worth a call for clarification if the 6.5x55 Swede is what you're after. FWIW, there was a group buy over on AR a year or two ago. The initial communication from K-Var was that the rifles would take 90 days to arrive after the order was placed. As it turned out, that 90 days grew to 6 months of more. This may be were the thought of Zastava being hard to deal with came about.
I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.

"An archer sees how far he can be from a target and still hit it, a bowhunter sees how close he can get before he shoots." It is certainly easy to use that same line of thinking with firearms. -- Unknown
