Nice!  clap1

I wonder if they have a special block of guns they set aside for this conversion or they just took any decent condition M59/66 and used it?

The 'Yugoslavia dont have chrome" is BS, they just chose not to do the bores.

FWIW

They had 300 of these.  There were 600 chinese honorguards imported and those are up to $900 after shipping and transfer.

I really like that look and wasn't sure if I really really wanted one.  Has anyone ever seen one of these in person?  I cannot find any examples of these in the US even going back many years on various boards/forums. 

I did pass up the sweet 59/66 recently.... then bit on the M59 and it is a beauty. 

These are unissued SKSs.  Pricey?  Yes.  Rare?  Probably. 

I would never shoot one.  I would keep it safe or display it.  Is it worth $700 for a safe queen? 

I wonder what these will sell for in 2016 on GB....  Fun to watch for that.

On the website pics, these clearly have grain. I was afraid they were fiberglass.  I think they are wood.

Yup...  They are wood.   

Looks like the bolt carrier is also chrome.

 I see three guns in AIMs pics with the letter I as the year 1972.

They come with log books... Will be interesting to see if they are the original Zastava log books, refurb depo books, or something else.
