Naw, those are phosphor night sites.  That's an "O" block rifle most likely….

Still it's a nice one!  thumb1

Lets see that serial prefix....

Yeah welp...  those sire dont look like the painted phosphorus sights to me. Perhaps the rifle received an upgrade?

Like I thought....  Tritium sights.   Either it had been upgraded by the Yugoslavians, or the dating of when they had them is incorrect.

I stand correct, definitely tritium sights there.  You got good eyes there Mr C!   I blame old age & poor eyesight  chuckles1

You know, it wouldn't surprise me if the official data isn't correct in places, but that's a huge change from O block all the way to Z.  I never had the pleasure to talk with withergyld, but he seemed like a meticulous guy.  Yugos definitely aren't my strongpoint.

ridin, refurb mark is thought to be a "TRZ" on the right side (opposite side as the S/N) on the stock:


Yugo mausers have a 1.TRZ on their stocks indicating the refurb facility.

Ok, on one of my Yugo Mausers, it has a plain TRZ, stamp, my M59, shown below has a 1.TRZ.
I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse......

Leave the gun, take the cannoli.

Man RM is battin 0.000 in this thread!  bat1

Any idea what that "1." is for Carl?  I thought I had seen it on Yugo SKSs, but I wasn't 100% certain and didn't want to make a horse's ass of myself (I know, too late).  I do 100% know it's on certain Mausers, my 24/47 sports one!  think1

I've never seen a Yugo. I would like to fondle one for a few minutes though, they seem interesting.

I got nothin :o, it was one of those things I never thought about till I read what you wrote. Different level of refurb, or different line at the facility??

I don't believe to have ever seen the TRZ on a 59/66......  always on the m59

My yugo has the same as my Chinese. I don't see a swivel like that on the yooperj site either. Not sure.
