Title: Ceremonial Yugo sks for the 4th
Post by: BMont on July 02, 2020, 01:46:05 PM
Hi every one....

Had some time this afternoon to post here for the first time.  I posted these pics on a different platform but thought I would post them here.  In celebration of our independence day I thought it appropriate for a parade sks combo.  Happy 4th of July every one!

Very nice man!  I kick myself sometimes for not jumping on one when they were selling at retail and I had the chance, then other times I decide that owning an SKS I would never shoot is just not for me.  They are very nice lookers!

I too kick myself for not getting in on these.  :-[ I don't mind the not shooting them factor, licking is a joy of its own.
Nice rifle and happy 4th!

Nice!  thumb1 I see you picked up one of the plated (nickel or chrome?) M57s too!

I’m glad I jumped on the first batch offered by Aim.

Yep Im glad you did too... not sure how many of these cam into the country... from what I can tell just several hundred.  I think I have seen 3 batches.  Two from AIM and one from Classic.

Yes, the "Protokol" M59/66-A1s are superbly finished Yugoslavian SKSs with hard-chromed bayonet (blade and handle), gas tube, handguard ferrules, magazine, magazine follower and bolt carrier.

Are the barrels chromed on these?   Seems like, 'while you are at it'.... :)
