Featured in this lot we have a Yugoslavian Model 59/66 SKS 7.62x39mm semi auto rifle. The SKS was the predecessor to the AK-47, a Soviet semi-automatic rifle chambered for the 7.62x39mm round. The SKS, an acronym for Samozaryadnyj Karabin sistemy Simonova, uses a short-stroke gas piston with a tilting bolt and a 10-round stripper clip-fed or individual round loading feed system. While the the rifle is shorter and less powerful than the semi-automatic rifles that preceded it, the SKS has a 4-inch longer barrel than AK-series rifles that replaced it, resulting in a higher muzzle velocity. The rifle features a post front sight, an adjustable aperture rear sight, a flip-up luminous sight, a grenade-launcher muzzle device, a grenade sight, and a bayonet. The rifle is in good condition, with few signs of wear. The blue'd finish shows good condition. This rifle was produced in 1977. The barrel is marked "MDL 59/66 Yugo 7.62x39 C.A.I. Georgia VT". It is a modern rifle and requires a FFL transfer or NICS background check. The serial number is 700575. The rifle measures 44" long overall with a 24" long barrel.
