Zastava Arms

About

Zastava Arms (Serbian: Застава oружје, romanized: Zastava oružje) is a Serbian (formerly Yugoslavian) weapons design and manufacturing company. The company originates from the Kragujevac Cannon Foundry "Topolivnica" founded in 1853 in the Serbian city of Kragujevac, a major manufacturer of military ordnance, including small arms, for the militaries of Serbia and later Yugoslavia.

In the early 20th century, the Kragujevac plant opened up production facilities for automobiles, which it gradually expanded in the coming years. After WWII, the Kragujevac plant was renamed to Red Flag Factories (Serbian: Заводи Црвена Застава, romanized: Zavodi Crvena Zastava). In 1953, the Zastava plant began to focus on producing automobiles exclusively, and it seems that the ordnance production facilities at Zastava were spun off into their own entity. Though the details of Zastava's split isn't clear, it is clear that two distinct manufacturers bearing the Zastava name emerged from this split: Zastava Automobiles, a major Serbian automobile manufacturer, and Zastava Arms.
