Joined your ranks today...

Went to a gun show today and walked out with this Yugo in good shape for $200. Only thing is the lever for the safety broke, didn't even realize it until I got it home, o well.







Already ordered a stock and other accessories for it, I'm excited to shoot it!

safety's are overrated anyways. I'm really just kidding guys. I'm just as big on gun safety as the next guy. Nice weapon bro. I love my Yugo.

I plan on replacing the trigger assembly so I can have the safety. I hate not having one, but I will set it with a pocket knife for now and deal with it. Thanks everyone for the warm welcome, can't wait to get my Draganov stock and 4x30 scope I ordered off ebay. Plan on refinishing the stock as well since I love woodworking anyway. Might be going out to the range tomorrow to test it out since I haven't taken my M44 out for a while either. I love how easy this gun is to take apart! No tools really required for a basic strip down. And the bullets are just adorable next to my 7.62x54.
