Slovenian HG Pic Thread
« on: September 23, 2015, 07:58:21 PM »
Ok guys, here is one of the two.

Both are A-block 1987 serials and are about 120 apart in serials.

PW Arms importer like all the other recent yugos.
100% bore
100% stamped matching
100% white paint in GL ladder
100% bluing
100% stock condition.

There is no hole in the butt for the cleaning kit, the rifle came with a pull-rope, and the sling is def not a regular yugo sling.  There is some funky plastic/rubber plug in the front sight and over the rear sight. The log book shows it was cosmoed in 2004. 

These are very much 'mint' in all aspects.    thumb1

So is there a hole in the stock for a cleaning rod?

It's a nice rifle, I just still can't get excited over it for some reason.

Have you been able to determine what the stock finish is?

Bah, he's just a Chinese snob LC!  chuckles1

I like it.  I don't like the price tag, but the rifle itself is smart looking.  I'd have issues buying a rifle that I dared not shoot.  First shot would likely strip a gouge of chrome off of some moving part and that'd be all she wrote as far as minty-ness.  cry1

Very nice one though, certainly a head turner with all the unusualness to it.

Ooh, nice  8)  thumb1

I'm excited  banana time

That wood looks very nice.  Just looks like a smoother deeper finish (an maybe finer grain) on the elm than the typical Yugo.

Worth every penny and now that they're sold out it's probably already worth a few more.

Nice, certainly minty.  Why the EP'd numbers on the inside of the trigger guard?

It's sad that the motto of young Americans isn't "live free or die" or "I regret that I have but one life to give for my country" or even "ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country". Instead their motto is "pee yourself, shelter in place and cry for help". Pathetic.

Just received mine. Wow. About the prettiest thing I've ever seen. Glad I went through with it. Mine is a B, so 1988.  EDIT: Does have EP like yours after looking at it again.

No idea... The stamped numbers clearly match.  My guess is they are some sort of tracking number while going through the HG conversion.

I've seen some (not all though) of those eps numbers match the stamped number on the barrel lug.  Anyone planning on taking the stock off theirs for a looksee?  If so vgeck that barrel lug number and see if it matches the EPs.

Def a tracking number though.

Tracking number makes sense. Like LC said, the stamped numbers clearly matched so these EP'd numbers would not be some forced match situation.

Welp...  They didn't use cleaning rods with these guns in Slovenia, but since there were blued nos rods floating around loose in the crates, I'll put two of those on thar.  :)

Note...  These are my fathers until I can buy one later from him.

Okay.. got mine on Saturday! Apart from the smallest ding near the trigger guard (I assume from the crate), it's every bit as nice as I expected.
The serial begins with U... can you guys tell me what year that is?

Very nice!

It was originally made in 1984... Look at the log book to see when It was turned into an HG.
