    Yep it has the same internals as a steyr ssg, remember reading it on the MIA facebook page

    are steyr's upgradable, as in just springs, making it little more powerfull or just replacing the parts incase they brake?

    lol, just saw the varmint tag, they seem to want to associate it with every real gun, AND fallout trying to get people to buy that crap lol

    Damn for a split second I thought LCT had finally released a M70. They have had a receiver out for about two years now. http://www.wgcshop.com/wgc2008/main/product_detail1.php?search_From=searchItem&item=LCT-PK-65&search=searchItem&rs=m70ab2&catid=&cat=

    The airsoft Zastava M70 varmint is itself based on the real hunting rifle
    http://www.zastava-arms.rs/en/civilianproduct/sporting-rifle-m70-standard
    The varmint name: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varmint_rifle which is a fairly accurate in its description as the smallbore firearm/high powered hunting gun the airsoft version is based on.
    I reckon this may be an original zastava rifle taking inspiration from the mauser locking bolt design.
    also not to be confused with the zastava M70 assualt rifle which is itself a fairly common clone of the kalashnikov AK47 range of assault rifles.

    As for a steyr SSG being similar they are in fact quite different, I own a Zastava M70 varmint and a friend owns the Steyr SSG the magazines are not interchangeable and the steyr uses a modern picatinny rail to mount scopes while the zastava has a older staggered layout to mount a scope.
    And im nearly sure I tried fitting the steyr trigger system in the zastava an it just wouldnt fit so they are indeed two different guns sharing no interchangeable parts.

    Very little is known of the real-life counterpart zastava M70 varmint but I hope this may help
