Ok, now the boring fine print stuff. ;)
Well, somewhere out in the world is M59 #116, bat1 Where, oh where is it? It has a Samco import stamp with a ZCZ suffix, guess RM will speculate what that hoopla means? No Numbers on the carrier, gas tube, piston or rear sight. The bolt matches, box mag is #116, trigger guard matches, stock matches. It has the cool purplish color receiver like my beat to death "C" series M59. The barrel measures 22 inches, has the adjustable front sight and the cleaning kit in the stock.. And as an added bonus, it's coated in the most wonderful slimy yucky slick'em, and it smells sooooo good. The house reeks of Yugo, and momma is bat1 bat1. banana time thumb1
She's a beaut GM. Really nice score there, and one of the old imports to boot! thumb1
I was going to say you had a newly seen import stamp, but then I got to looking close at the M59 Samco stamp I've already got and the ZCZ is right there. The stamps are identical save for the placement of the ZCZ which honestly looks like an afterthought.

The stamp was put there to satisfy:
Quote from: 27 CFR §478.92
§478.92 How must licensed manufacturers and licensed importers identify firearms, armor piercing ammunition, and large capacity ammunition feeding devices?
(a)(1) Firearms. You, as a licensed manufacturer or licensed importer of firearms, must legibly identify each firearm manufactured or imported as follows:
(i) By engraving, casting, stamping (impressing), or otherwise conspicuously placing or causing to be engraved, cast, stamped (impressed) or placed on the frame or receiver thereof an individual serial number. The serial number must be placed in a manner not susceptible of being readily obliterated, altered, or removed, and must not duplicate any serial number placed by you on any other firearm. For firearms manufactured or imported on and after January 30, 2002, the engraving, casting, or stamping (impressing) of the serial number must be to a minimum depth of .003 inch and in a print size no smaller than 1/16 inch; and
(ii) By engraving, casting, stamping (impressing), or otherwise conspicuously placing or causing to be engraved, cast, stamped (impressed) or placed on the frame, receiver, or barrel thereof certain additional information. This information must be placed in a manner not susceptible of being readily obliterated, altered, or removed. For firearms manufactured or imported on and after January 30, 2002, the engraving, casting, or stamping (impressing) of this information must be to a minimum depth of .003 inch. The additional information includes:
(A) The model, if such designation has been made;
(B) The caliber or gauge;
(C) Your name (or recognized abbreviation) and also, when applicable, the name of the foreign manufacturer;
(D) In the case of a domestically made firearm, the city and State (or recognized abbreviation thereof) where you as the manufacturer maintain your place of business; and
(E) In the case of an imported firearm, the name of the country in which it was manufactured and the city and State (or recognized abbreviation thereof) where you as the importer maintain your place of business. For additional requirements relating to imported firearms, see Customs regulations at 19 CFR part 134.
The SAMCO satisfies 1/2 of part C
The MIA FL satisfies 1/2 of part E
The M59 satisfies part A
The YUGO satisfies the other 1/2 of part E
The 7.62x39 satisfies part B
and finally the ZCZ almost certainly stands for "Zavodi Crvena Zastava" which would satisfy the other 1/2 of part C thumb1
Pretty neat gun though, the plum receivers are spiffy!
No tellin... 116 may not even be an LB. dntknw1
Looks great man. thumb1
What's the highest LB we've seen LC? (Minus the oddball B's/C's with the long barrel and std front sight)
092... John Galt
