I agree. I'd scrub it down with turpentine, buff it with 00 steel wool, wipe it clean, and give it a few coats of either BLO or Tung Oil.
Oh, and you need a sling and cleaning rod.

Thanks for the tip, think I'll give it a shot tomorow.
Picked it up today...
DCI/Coonan type 1 FAL receiver
Not much to look at right now, but when combined with this ...
a few more parts, parkerizing and a bit of labor of love, it should end up looking something like this (Photoshop renditions)...

Ended picking this up from the same shop I got the Yugo at. I just could not pass at what they wanted for it. It as pretty dirty, looked like who ever had it before had never cleaned it, hell the cleaning kit was still caked in cosmo. It's a late 1970's [0221] factory production, all matching numbers. One cool thing is the last five digits are 00458, so its kinda a low number. Only problem with it is there is a small crack in the stock by the crossbolt, but it doesn't look like it will be a problem (hopefully), and there is some light piting on the magazine and bottom of the trigger group.
Should be the last one for a while.![[wink]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/002.gif "Wink [wink]")

Yer putting that C&R to good use !
Nice pickup!
Looks like an M59 but the stock (even though dirty) is pretty dark for Yugo wood.
So Weer'd... what is it? Where'd ya get it? How much was it? Are there more?
You can PM me if you mail ordered.
Romanian. I belive that makes it an M56 But I'm not up on my SKS Lingo.
No C&R used, bought it from AZMLII in a FTF.
And before you say "AZMLII????" That's what Patrick calls himself on the rare occations he posts
Yeah she needs a good bath, but frankly I think that part will be kinda fun!

I should have my Albanian next week.
Then I'll have one from almost every country that made them except the hard to find ones like Korean, Vietnamese, and ever so rare East German.BTW, not to drift too far off topic here but heres a note on the Romanians:
These are extremely new to the U.S. market and little is known about them. There is only one known configuration of these quite worn but high quality Romanian SKS's which may still be in official use in Romania to this day. Until the floodgate was opened, collectors believed the triangle with the arrow arsenal mark was of Chinese origin since the firing pin is so similar to Far East SKS types. Poyer's book describes the surprise collectors experienced when these firearms suddenly appeared on the U.S. market as the Romanian government flat out denied for years they were ever produced.
I'm up for it!
Prolly not possible, but with the strong potential of a plethora of Yugos there maybe we should pop off some practice grenades? I forgot who has one here.....

HOT. I have put close to 3000 rounds through mine with 0 complaints. The white dot in the rear sights fell out, but S&W took care of that no problem. I know you turn lots of guns but I think you'll have a hard time letting this one go. I source of mags at about 2/3 the normal price if you are looking, PM me.

Here's my acquisition for January 2007; my first firearm. I decided to get a SU-16. This one is the B model. I got it at Eric Manna Distributing in New Ipswitch, NH. Can't wait to get out and shoot it.
Here are some better pictures (2/10/07)

Well I guess that answers that "AR or SKS?" Question: NEITHER!
