I recently bought a Yugo SKS and the wood is looking a little rough after I cleaned the cosmo off. I'm going to refinish the wood, possibly red cherry satin. I'm also having the grenade launcher taken off, and ordering a muzzle break for it. I'm thinking this could look good, but I also like the original rough look it has. What do you guys think? Refinish the wood and stain it cherry satin, along with the muzzle brake, or leave it alone? |
The G/l functions as a muzzle brake already...(pretty sure). Someday you might come across a box of 22mm grenades. Someday. I'd stain it blonde, because it would look so groovy with a blonde stock. Refinish the metal, and as long as it has a good, clean bore, you've got your self a fine Looter shooter. |

Try this for your stock - it worked very well for me -- Linky. I used this method, did some fine sanding, and finished with several thin hand-rubbed coats of Minwax clear polyurethane using 0000 steel wool between coats. I bought a M59 Yugo. IMHO, the grenade launcher is worthless and only adds excess weight and length to the SKS. |
