The Zastava M84 is a general-purpose machine gun manufactured by Zastava Arms. It is a gas-operated, air-cooled, belt-fed and fully automatic shoulder-fired weapon. The M84 is a licensed copy of the Soviet Union's PKM, with a few differences such as a differently shaped stock, and a slightly longer and heavier barrel which has slightly different measurements at the gas port and forward of the trunnion in diameter.

Variants

M84

The M84 is intended for infantry use, against enemy infantry and light vehicles. It is also configured for tripod mounting (like the PKS).

M86

The M86 is a tank machine gun, and is designed to mount as a coaxial weapon on M-84 tanks and other combat vehicles. The stock, bipod, and iron sights are omitted from this version, and it includes a heavier barrel and electric trigger, much like the Russian PKMT. Another version, the M86A, is designed for external mounts and can be used dismounted.
