Changing stocks on my yugo sks

jmatt28 · 09-25-2007, 06:27 PM

I am looking at buying a yugo sks model 59/66. I have been told that replacing the stock on this particular gun is a problem. just wondering if anyone has put a folding stock on this model weapon, or any other stock for that matter. were there problems?. was there any gunsmithing needed to be done? . Thanks for your input

if you find a decent stock it really shouldn't. The Yugo has a weird problem, at least mine, that involves reassembling it. the trigger assembly is really picky and doesn't like to snap back. a slight dremel job fixed it for me.

Spend the money on a good one, i prefer the wood, but the synthetic ones do actually help with accuracy, so I've heard.

Try the Monte Carlo stock from www.CheaperThanDirt.com, they also have the Fiber Force and Folding stock but, the Monte Carlo is made for stability and may help you with accuracy.
