Find me a consistent source with yugos of this condition including matching book and all accessories for under $430.  I'm not talking about 'right place at right time' single guns on some trader from untrusted Joe Schmo that likely wont ship.

I have better things to do with my time.  At least someone brought these guns in and gave the community an option etc.  Maybe we need more mosins to hit the shelf so GM can be interested in something again.    rofl

No comparison to $410 cracked stock yugos from samco with no book or accessories.

So, forgive my lack on knowledge on these.  Are they "newer" built rifles and not original military issue>

Or; are they the real deal?  Did it show year of manufacure?

Thanks

I think its great they are importing any sks, but am I going to pull the trigger on one of these m59/66 mmmm...........no, a M59 hell yeah I would! Don't get me wrong I love putting any new gun from an importer in the ol' shopping cart and waiting by the door, but the grenade launcher is a huge turn off. Its like a chick with hairy armpits......some guys like em, some guys don't! chuckles1

These are the real deal.  They were likely: used lightly by all appearances, refurbished to the extent needed, put in Cosmoline for storage and stacked away in a warehouse until warehouse.

While I get the turn off to some with all the extra junk on a 59/66...I cannot understand not wanting one as an SKS fan. I got lucky, but still would love a shooter grade one since mine is a princess that deserves a cushion to sit upon. The few times I have defiled her bore, I was kind of impressed with the way she shot, that extra weight seemed to help...and she was quite accurate...for a virgin prom queen I was trying to be ever so gentle with...

If the price was more reasonable...I might bite and piss the wife off to no end when she sees her Cabela's Visa bill...but I would be more content to see if some bottom of the barrel c grades show up so I can have one I feel comfortable shooting. My Cherry's just got transplanted to camp...just in time to make me feel less need to bite on this opportunity...I have to go now, and install a rack for her...she doesn't like to be affiliated with the Chinese Types.  rofl

You guys really make GREAT interesting reads here. I agree IMO that the M 59/66 is the least preferred sks. Ive owned one of the Ca modified 59/66 for about a year and sold it to fund something else. Being a somewhat a semi collector, I would love to own just one of these nice hand select crate warriors in original configuration just because all sks's are cool. The funny thing is that if you were showing your sks's to a stranger, The 59/66 would be the choice of the coolest looking  :o

Since they are truly so unique to the SKS world everybody who truly cares should have one (or have had one)... They have a pretty high neato factor. Practicality-wise maybe not so much...but when you have a grenade launcher suddenly you feel as if something is a little longer...and it is...but it is just your barrel length....and it is harder to find a place to put your...barrel. rofl2

I guess I need more than a possible blank book with a stamp or a "free" leather sling to excite me for 430. The book while a somewhat cool, doesn't generate movement, what would I do with it, fill it with green stamps, add it to my many boxes of bayonets, slings and other toys, I cant shoot it. The sling, depending on condition, it may look ok and hold up. Sorry if my opinion offends the, but I just cant get excited over a "possible" new refurb, when others more rare like a Romanian or Albanian, even an M59 could be found for the same $$$$.

For those who dislike the m59/66, how about a straight up m59?  $425.  A 'few' crates could mean only 30 guns or so, I suspect they won't last long.

I'm not quite the 'enabler' that GM is, but I try my best!  thumb1

Good luck with them guys.  I've never dealt with this particular shop before, caveat emptor and all that.

Very Nice! If I had a little more in my gun fund, I would order one up. $425 + $15 Shipping to NE. I would drop that any day over a M59/66

Can't wait to see what shows up for the guys that ordered.

Are the grenade launchers easily removeable, if not, how do the war-fighters using these critters "fix bayonets"?

Maybe it's just me but, Yugos are the one SKS I really don't have any desire to own. I think the grenade launcher is fugly.

No they are pinned in place.  They are bear to get off w/o the proper tools.  The bayo locks in place via a hook that latches into a separate collar around the barrel just aft of the grenade launcher.   I don't have a great photo of one with the bayo extended, but here are a couple of mine that show the collar and hook on the bayo:
