tabuk
A 7.62×39mm, gas-operated Iraqi semi-automatic sniper rifle which its design is based from a modified version of the Zastava M70 assault rifle.
It visually resembles the Zastava M72 light machine gun which is patterned after the RPK. The Tabuk is built on a RPK-style receiver that utilizes the long-stroke piston action of the AK and has many parts in common with the Zastava M70 series. The Tabuk differs from the M72 in some other ways. It has a provision for mounting scopes, though this is not an unusual accessory on Eastern Bloc weapons. Second one, a skeletonized fixed wooden buttstock with a cheek piece. A third difference, is the conspicuous lack of a bipod.
