Latest Addition to the Family


 
Of guns that is! Yugoslavian SKS m59/66. I am just learning to read the markings on these rifles so I will haft to see what year is was manufactured. Got a greal deal of ksl.com. $300 for the gun and 500 rounds of wolf 7.62x39.  I had one of these a for about 4 years but recently sold it when I was unemployed. Regreted it ever since. That was one a Norinco SKS(Chinese) in a Monte Carlo stock with scope mount. One of the first guns I ever bought. This one came in a side folder stock, but luckily the owner had the orginal wood. Not in the best shape and missing the buttplate, cleaning kit, and screws. My plans for this rifle are either to restore it or sporterize it in a Tapco t6 stock, 20 rounds mags, etc. Right now I leaning toward restoring it but the stock is not the prettiest SKS stock I've seen. I may replace it with another yugo stock if I can find one.
