My Yugo SKS is pretty solid (better than the Chinese ones, but arguably not as nice as the original Russian ones though...).

- dotancohen 5y agoInteresting, I didn't know that they made a PAP. What year was it manufactured? I suppose the real question is, how well does the bolt lock and slide? The furniture is of less concern. I've never handled a PAP, they're not common where I live. I have seen the difference between the Russian and the Chinese AKs, though, and so I do understand what you mean.
- CapricornNoble 5y agoI'm not in the States so I don't have it handy (gave it to my father)...I think it was a late 1970s model? Bolt was pretty smooth, only had a few misfires over the years, and I was running Wolf ammo and barely cleaning the weapon.
- dotancohen 5y agoI just found this in the PAP Wikipedia article [1]: > In most variants (Yugoslav models being the most notable > exception), the barrel is chrome-lined That reinforces my comment about the Yugoslav manufacturing industry!
