side scope mount or receiver cover mount?

pinned or threaded barrel?

do you have the original mags?

i think you could get around 165-180$ for them at a show but thats just the prices i see here in 'bama.

I've personally found the Yugo's to be better made than the Chinese. But the Chinese are less common now than they were a few years ago. I recently got a NIB 30+ year old Yugo for $160, and I saw Norinco in pretty rough shape for $285 last weekend @ Cabela's. (Offered them $100.00 & they thought I was kidding!)
Ask $200, take $165. Never know!

I've heard yugos are stouter to compensate for no chrome in barrel.
