Decided to go with the Yugoslavian SKS 59/66, and ordered. Wow, are they fast! I called in the order on Monday last week, and it was delivered on Thursday. It is one of their "new, unissued" rifles.
After a few nights of battling cosmoline, I brought it out to the range. It's definitely not a "target rifle", but I could keep the shots in the black with a little effort at 50 yards.
After getting rid of the cosmo, I slapped on a few coats of Tung Oil, and gave it a final rub with 0000 steel wool. Good to Go!
My next challenge was how to store the assortment of bayonets that I've begun to acquire. Here's one quick and dirty solution:
It ain't pretty, but it works. Basically, I just created a denim sleeve and hung it from a screw on the inside of the gun vault door. Will have to do for now.....
