Horse trashy as well. What the hell?!? I agree man, if you want to be like this, sell local and not national. How long do you think a "whites only" sale would last? No different in my book. I can relate to what his thinking was and don't necessarily disagree with what he does with his on property....but WRONG venue.

Bizarro gun here. Early low serial C block, should be a M59, but it's clearly got an M59/66 barrel, sights, and gas system. No idea whether this one was done at arsenal in the former Yugoslavia or if bubba rebarreled it.
Missed another (not that there's much to see here). Must be losing my touch!

Hmm, the scarce M59/NC-Star/DMR fart1 :))
Too bad Bubba had his black arts way with this SKS. It may have been an unusual refurb Arsenal upgrade to M59/66A1 specs.

It is certainly not an early rendition of a 59/66 as it has the night sights and the non ported launcher. It seems like an awful big job to basdardize an m59 and upgrade it to a m59/66A1. This would be a nice time to have the log book for sure...and some close ups of any stake marks and electro pencil handiwork. I suspect it was done during a refurb...and would be quite a neat find if that was the case, and provable.
I find it interesting to see both the UTG Pro and the Choate M4 in the wild... I haven't seen anyone pony up the cash for either and it is my first time seeing anything other than stock photos. I find the UTG less appealing than imagined, and the Choate more interesting than I had before. I almost wonder if the mag included is some spendy DC Engineering contraption.
It would have been a screaming deal if it came with the original stock and hardware. Bubba lost at least $200 on this sale.
If done here, I would think someone might have spent some time just getting the head space correct. I ain't saying it can't be done, but to do it state side and not consider that into the equation is kinda scary. :o
A refurb shop would have no issues dealing with it, it might be an extra few minutes worth of minor inconvenience for the factory, they have the parts and skill to do it, where a weekend warrior in moms basement would have to figure out, measure and learn exactly how to do and what to do correctly, and even drag liability in to his life if something went wrong in this sue happy world, just to make an oddity.
