Title: "C" M59

Top 'o the morning, gunlords. I don't get to say this very often, but I have one on the way. Tracking indicates I should have it today and I'll share pics asap. It's no queen, but a decent enough specimen I think.

More important, where are the pictures?  Something, maybe a stick figure holding a stick rifle, I cant see the Yugo in transit from here, teasing and taunting is not nice!

OK fellas here's the M59. I snagged it Monday afternoon for starting money of 339, 401 to get it in the front door. It was listed as Type 59.

The stock and receiver match, the rest of it is a mixmaster which suits me fine. The gas piston sure doesn't look like it's done much work to me, I thought it was a US part at first but it has a TK EP'd on it. It has no 1.TRZ stamp, and no cleaning kit. I never found the import stamp in the sellers pics so I was expecting to find Samco under the barrel but it was TG. I don't know when it might have been imported.

Edit - replace pics

I really dig that croat sticker...  I think you did well for an uncommon variant. Congrats!
