Yep. Yugosalvian SKS 7.62x39, all matching numbers and COVERED in what they called cosmoline(sp?). Built-in bayonet and the grenade attachment barrel, at least that's what the guy called it. Even came with the original Yogu military maintenance book that has all the maint. written down, in some language I can't understand. This will be a hoot to shoot .. rhyme not intended
Now about this cosmoline crap. It's like ... old petroleum jelly and sticky like all get-out. Guy at the show told me to use gasoline, guy at a gun store told me to use kerosene and that they didn't have anything that would clean it. Though they had a gallon of something called "CleanZoil" on the shelf, didn't bother to look at it. How do I clean this thing up? And what should I use so that I won't damage the wood or any parts?
Pictures forthcoming after I find some more batteries for the camera and after I clean it up. Maybe before.
