A friend called and asked if I wanted a free rifle !
Sure I’ll be happy to take it off your hands - and this is what he shows up with , all matching numbers and appears to have never been shot Yugo
Even came complete with all the accessories even a grenade launcher with sights , there also is a little log book written in another language :
Thanks Bryan ! !

Damn, I need some friends like that! :)
Sweet deal if I do say so myself. Log book included is a definite plus, looks to be a great rifle, seems your friend thought you'd enjoy it more than he would. Either way, don't let em down thumb1

Wow, definitely a good pal you have there! thumb1

He and I have been friends for over 40 years and have traded weapons back and for many of times , I recently gave him a couple of old USGI pistols and he also gave me the heads up on a awesome Albanian SKS , I’ll be posting some pics of it soon !
Good friends like that are hard to come by !!
Dang, nice looking M59/66 he gave you. Probably about a $750 value easy with all the accessories. Congrats.
Nice, sweet score. I've told my nephews in the past to get 1K of X39 (& keep that much on hand) and I'd give them an SKS. PAX
That flash hider launcher is the real deal without the holes at the tip of it. Thats a very nice 59/66. thumb1

He must be your Valentine. lol. What a great friend you have. R U mowing his lawn for free this year?

Very nice, indeed!
Thought I would add a couple pics of the accessories that came with it
Cleaning kit in the butt stock - not in pic
Log book
Ammo punch
Leather pouch with oil bottle
And what appears to be a cleaning jag ?
Can’t vouch for the vintage or authenticity , but it all came with the rifle

Wow....that is awesome sir! Yugos are nice rifles and don't seem to be appreciated as much as they should be.
Take it out and enjoy it!
That's all authentic Yugoslavian wrap ! You got the handsome soldier and he also threw in the kitchen sink. thankyou1
I need a friend (or two, three... five hundred) like that. Congratulations!
Damn! I thought you were giving one away.
WOW, you owe him, at least, a med-rare 16oz rib-eye dinner and a long island iced tea.

We have passed a few guns back and forth over the past 30 years or so mostly Milsurp stuff , he said he picked up a Tula he’s gonna drop off next time he’s in town .. he usually comes across nice stuff during his travels thumb1
