lazycommie AlcoholicPancake lazycommie She's a 1975 Yugoslavian SKS M59/66 sporting a 4x32 scope. Doesn't that rifle have a tendency to jam up often? Or am I thinking of a different one? Definitely a different one. The SKS has a reputation(well earned) of being more reliable than an AK as well as more accurate, at the cost of weighing more and being more costly to manufacture. The Yugo variant takes the "weighs more" aspect to extremes in exchange for making it even more reliable with an even wider range of loadings as well as rifle grenades. I have several hundred rounds of ridiculously dirty ammo through mine, both Wolf and Yugo surplus, without a single stoppage of any kind. It'll eat anything I feed it happily. Yugo surplus is dirtier, but much more accurate and it's the only stuff I stock anymore. Wolf is low-quality ammo, but used to be very cheap.
Ahhh, thank you for clearing that up for me. You say you put some dirty ammo through there, so this makes me want to ask, how long does it take to clean the chamber, and how hard is that gun to open up and clean? Does it have way to many parts like the M4 Assault, or only a couple which makes it easier and more efficient?
@Sowunni - How old are you? You look really young in that picture. You look nice though.
@Agent - You look a lot like my friend Clay, not that it's a bad thing, I'm just saying.
@Bass - Looks like that would have been a fun place to take a walk.

Not long at all. I actively love cleaning my guns, but even if I shoot corrosive ammo like Yugo surplus it takes me maybe 20 minutes to do a full cleaning, or 30 seconds to just run windex through it to wash out the corrosive salts. I clean and oil it regularly even when I don't shoot it, because I like to.
It can be opened up and cleaned without any tools(much like the AR platform like the M4 can be) and field stripped very easily. The trigger group is the only complicated part, and that's all in one group that you don't have to disassemble. You just take it and clean it as a unit, since it comes off the gun as a unit. Takes me about 50 seconds to take it down fully and maybe a minute to put it back together, less if it's just field stripping or if I'm putting the regular receiver cover(not the scope mount one) on, since it goes on easier.
Should we take this to the phunkeh thread?
