BBT just left. This thing is BEAUTIFUL. Very sticky with cosmo. Hoeny blonde stock with an upper handguard that is maybe two shades darker. The metal is 100% of the blackest finish I have ever seen on a firearm. All matching without a single blemish of any kind. This is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!! Check this out, the invoice lists the rifle at $180.25, ammo pouch, $9.95 (nearly new with some cosmo staining), looks like it will hold three or four strippers in each of the two pockets, cleaning kit $9.95, (not so nice little pouch with a pull through, sling $9.95 (pretty shitty at best, maybe a good), bayonet $24.95 (it's attached to the rifle), Grenade launcher $24.95 (it's attached also), Grenade sight, (it's attached too) plus shipping of $12.00 for a total of $311.95. In all you come up with a $300 rifle though I'm not sure why they did it that way. This is well worth the money. If you guys getting LN Yugos get one like this you will all be sporting wood. I'm gonna go stroke it, I mean clean it. Really is greasy. BEAUTIFUL:D

Pay attention no C&R guys, see what a type 03 license will do to a otherwise normal guy?


Deal a meal,

Congrats on the new Yugo, pretty soon all of us will have them!

I have just burned the first cosmo soaked rag in the fireplace as an offering to the great spirit of the BBT. This will be a chore. I'm not used to some much fresh cosmo. The finish on the metal is so black it draws you in and holds you. Damn I'm gonna havta go throw some rope here in a minute. My mint Norinco is in the armory crying like a little jilted bitch, which she is. There's a new queen in the in there now. I don't think I can stop at one of these. Must get control, no-no I'm a cruffler go for it. More is better. AHHHHHHHHHH!

Cool! Can't wait for mine to arrive. How's the barrel look?

Haven't checked yet. I just checked the chamber and went to wiping. I hate to break her down as I know the lever will scratch the receiver cover when I swing it. Oh well, it's about the shooting not the hoarding. By the by, I/O's stamp is very nicely done. Right side of barrel, two lines with address, model# and caliber. letters are about 1/16" high and very clear and straight. It took a while for me to find it. Almost as good as a U.S. manufacturer. I like.

bayonet $24.95 (it's attached to the rifle), Grenade launcher $24.95 (it's attached also), Grenade sight, (it's attached too)

Here's what they'll put on the invoice if they ever send any of these to Kali:

bayonette removal $24.95, grenade launcher removal $24.95...:D

I'm sure the bore will be nice to but let us know to confirm please.

I degreased the wood with Purple power, Windex and and Murphy's Oil Soap. Tomorrow I'll 0000 steel wool and then the first of many coats of Boiled Linseed Oil. Some dirt in the stock under the grease but it almost all came out. I did find one little dimple about the size of the tip of a pencil lead on the side of the stock. Handguard is going to be a few shades darker in color. There is a cleaning kit in the but. The buttplate is rubber and the rifle is with it attached is the same length as my Norinco which has the extended 1" butt pad on it. The bore is quite nice and chrome lined. The barrel is threaded and the trigger group appears to be milled. Everything is intact. There was a small soot mark on the gas piston so I assume it was test fired all indications are that was the extent of it's use. It is very nice indeed. There is a standard 7.62 cleaning kit in the buttstock. So far there is nothing about this rifle that I can find fault with. She is one sweet little bitch. Glad I popped the cherry on one of these.;)
