anybody have one. aim surplus is selling them for like 160 i think. been thinkin about getting one. might be a good collection peice. anyone think they will go like the albainians? |

I just ordered one. According to AIM, they only have a small quantity. Maybe the'll get more, maybe not. The M59/66 supply is still there... so maybe we'll get more of them. I don't think they'll be like the Albanian in the oddities and differences... meaning, you should be able to use M59/66 parts in the M59 without problems. |

Received it last night. Looks pretty nice. The wood is darker, like walnut, with good figure lines. In good shape with a couple dings and one gouge on one side close to the handguard. The metal is about 70% on the blueing. Detail stripped it, and everything internal looks to be in like new condition. The bore looks good, but I haven't wiped it out yet. Should get it all cleaned up tonight. If they do have a small quantity, and they don't get more, they will be somewhat collectible. If this one cleans up well and works well, I'll definitely want to get another or two. I prefer the ones without the grenade launching stuff. |
