Yugo ..... talk to me

[Loose}{Cannon]

Naw, those are phosphor night sites.  That's an "O" block rifle most likely….

Still it's a nice one! 

Lets see that serial prefix.... 

[jusridin]

Its an o.... 
Still it shoots great, I'm very pleased with it

Got a better/clear pic of those night sights?

[jusridin]

Its an o.....
Still, took her out today and danced with her, for a big girl she handled herself very well

[Loose}{Cannon]

Yeah welp...  those sire dont look like the painted phosphorus sights to me. Perhaps the rifle received an upgrade?

[jusridin]

Best pictures I could get

[jusridin]

They aren't painted, they look like little tubes

[Power Surge]

Definitely don't look painted to me 

Nice gun... looks like a 78?

[Loose}{Cannon]

Like I thought....  Tritium sights.   Either it had been upgraded by the Yugoslavians, or the dating of when they had them is incorrect.

[jusridin]

Do the Yugo's have any refurb marks I can look for? She is really clean, Its my first Yugo so I'm not very fluent in Yugo yet

[running-man]

I stand correct, definitely tritium sights there.  You got good eyes there Mr C!   I blame old age & poor eyesight 

You know, it wouldn't surprise me if the official data isn't correct in places, but that's a huge change from O block all the way to Z.  I never had the pleasure to talk with withergyld, but he seemed like a meticulous guy.  Yugos definitely aren't my strongpoint.

ridin, refurb mark is thought to be a "TRZ" on the right side (opposite side as the S/N) on the stock:


Yugo mausers have a 1.TRZ on their stocks indicating the refurb facility.

Ok, on one of my Yugo Mausers, it has a plain TRZ, stamp, my M59, shown below has a 1.TRZ.

Man RM is battin 0.000 in this thread! 

Any idea what that "1." is for Carl?  I thought I had seen it on Yugo SKSs, but I wasn't 100% certain and didn't want to make a horse's ass of myself (I know, too late).  I do 100% know it's on certain Mausers, my 24/47 sports one! 

[Dannyboy53]

I've never seen a Yugo. I would like to fondle one for a few minutes though, they seem interesting.

[jusridin]

I don't see any other marks on the stock other than the matching number

[Dannyboy53]

jusridin I noticed it has a different sling swivel than the Chinese SKS, is that the normal type?

I got nothin , it was one of those things I never thought about till I read what you wrote. Different level of refurb, or different line at the facility??

[Loose}{Cannon]

I don't believe to have ever seen the TRZ on a 59/66......  always on the m59

My yugo has the same as my Chinese. I don't see a swivel like that on the yooperj site either. Not sure.

[jusridin]

The swivel is different, I'm sure its not the stock one.
