Re to the Furb M59

[BMont]

A Dan's Ammo refurb still in the cosmo for your Labor Day Weekend viewing pleasure.  Im drawn to these Yugo's for some reason.

[Bacarnal]

Nice looking M59!!! I love the wood!!!

[echo1]

Yes.. nice wood. PAX

[Direct Connection]

Awww very refreshing. I can smell that Comblock Serbian beauty from here. 

[carls sks]

sweet! will have to check them out.

[BMont]

Still dripping cosmo from that action.  Might have to get this one cleaned up.  It does have decent wood for a furb.

nice rifle, love the straight up M59 , never cared for all the grenade crap

[Greatguns]

Very nice M59. Man, I haven't heard anybody mention Dan's Ammo for quite a while. Wasn't even sure he was still around.

Yea its prob been 8 months since I bought something from them.  I looked at their website not long ago and they are down to nothing in inventory.  I think they are going the way of SOG.   Not sure how old Dan is but with surplus in general getting thinner its a probable they are almost gone.

I got an M1 Winchester carbine from him not too long ago. He is alive and kicking but inventory moves quickly these days…

Very nice carbine there.  Dan's is a definite straight shooter in my book.  Would love to buy from him again, he just hasn't had anything I've wanted in a *very* long time

  Nice... just cause I'm that kinda guy... can I have it??   never hurts to ask.

Very nice! I like the M59s and I love that wood  It doesn't appear to be the standard elm. Looks more like walnut to me. I've got an M59 that I think is also in a walnut stock. Should be back a few pages on this sub-forum  ...

You sure that's not Teak P32?!?!?  (Sorry GM, I couldn't resist!)

Haha... yes you can after Im finished with it.  LOL.  Got it partly de greased before I had to go back to work.

Agreed... I think the last purchase I had from them was for some flares.  Last rifle purchase was those Beretta Olympia's from a few years back.

Nice riffle you have there.  I wondered about the stock... Ive always heard Elm as well but it sure doesnt look like my A1 versions.

Thanks. To be clear, I know the vast majority of Yugoslavian SKS (and M48 Mauser) stocks are elm, but they definitely had some walnut Mauser stocks and it’s likely there were some SKS stocks that were walnut (but certainly not teak).

Here is a Yugo oddity.. certainly not elm.. definitely not teak..




I read somewhere, they used a type of oak on the Mausers as well.. cause I have an odd one of them too. The hand guard on both the SKS above and the Mauser are elm..
