My Yugo M59 SKS came in today, after having it re-routed to my office.
Upon initial inspection, everything looks great. Definately would rate it a VG condition. Got some light dings in the otherwise really nice wood. Metal finish is probably at least 85-90%, and possibly better, although the cosmo is keeping me from getting a better look right now. Samco was the importer, and they did an excellent job of hiding the import mark (small) under the cleaning rod. All numbers (bolt, receiver, stock)are matching. Bayo blade on this appears to be blued, unlike the 59/66 bayo that was left in the white. Got alot of cleaning on this one, but I snapped a couple pics anyway.
Please forgive the pic quality, it is all I could do with my cheap camera and the sun going down.
I'm putting them in as a link as I don't know if they will fit the size requirements.

Looks good man, better than my Yugo did. I've never seen a blued bayonet before, does anyone know if that's common on this model?

Looks great, congrats.

Seems to be - my M59 bayo is also blued

Seems like a good idea to blue the bayonet so it doesn?t reflect light at night and give away your position.

Got one for Christmas from AIM.

Anyone know how to date these rifles from the serial number?

Nice.

My Yugo M59 SKS came in today, after having it re-routed to my office.

My biggest problem is no neighbor anymore here to accept shipment of my C&R purchases. How do you re-route your shipments?

Keenly interested. Thanks.

Wow, first time I heard of a blued bayo. Love this site.

Thanks again.

Rerouting with UPS is easy.
Once the first delivery attempt is made and failed, they leave you a notice. This has the article number and a 1-800 number to call. Just tell them it is an adult signature package that cannot be signed for at the current address, and give them an alternate address to ship to, where you will be to sign for it. **In order to avoid any potentiaL problems, do not tell them it is a firearm.** This causes some of them to get funny as that firearms are to only be shipped to the licensed address.

I'll give that a try. Thanks.
