Here's a couple pics of my rifle. I got the wood from Apex. I also bought an original grip but it was so used it looks bad. I'm sending it back.

Sorry. I guess I'm not familiar with how to add pictures here.

Ah ha! I did it!

All Yugo grips look used.  I have a several and they are all about the same.

I recently picked up a very slightly used kit and the grip was near new and still didnt look great...I guess thats just the way they are.

Great looking rifle.  Nice pics too.

Thanks. You might have a point on the grips. But the photo they showed looked 100% better than what I got. It looks like it's been drug around on concrete!

I had to buy 6 Yugo grips to get 3 that were actually worth using.  The others I returned.  I don't install shit parts on my rifles, functional or not.

I agree. If I can't get something that looks good forget it.

That's a very nice looking Yugo you got there!  I also haven't bought the Yugo grips yet because I'd like to find some that are in good condition.  Maybe I'll just have to buy a few and pick the best of them and send back the others.

Thanks! I would do that but I hate the hassle. I don't think Apex has anymore either. They aren't listed on the site.

Nice Yugo! This is my favorite by far. all my yugo grips have some wear. I think it would actually match your wood, ya know the battlefield look

Thanks! You have a good point. But, for some reason, it just didn't look right. I don't know what it was.

The best pistol grips I got from Centerfire.
The roughest I got from FTF Industries.
Of course it's a crap shoot whenever you are ordering military surplus from a vendor.  No guarantees on condition regardless who you are ordering from.

I picked up a Yugo grip and screw off Gunbroker that looked new in wrapper for the same price as the one at Centerfire a month or so ago.

Thanks guys. I'll check it out. You're right that you take your chances when you mail order from a surplus outfit though. They might not send you one in the greatest shape.

I bought an M70 UF from AK Concepts back when they were doing there thing and the rifle was 110% perfect all but the grip...After a short conversation I sent the grip back to them and they bead blasted it...I was a little hesitant but when I saw it I was extremely pleased with the outcome.

I'll try to post a pic of the rifle soon.

Just orderd one from Apex along with a couple of other items, guess I'll find out how bad they are. Most underfolders I saw (while the shops still had Yugos) had the original grip. My fixed stock M70B1 has the finger groove grip like yours.

I just bought a grip on Gunbroker that's supposed to be factory new. I guess I'll find out when it arrives.
