Design details

The Zastava Master FLG is gas operated submachine gun based on M70 design, but also incorporates some design features found on MP5. Special attention has been given to safety and ergonomic details and to prevent accidental firing when the gun is dropped or bumped. Weapon fires from a closed, fully locked rotating bolt. An internal lever blocks the triggering mechanism if the bolt is not fully closed.

All principle operations can be executed without moving the firing finger from the trigger guard. The gun features upper (ambidextrous) and lower magazine catch.
