I used a kerosene soaked rag and Q-Tips to get clean the cosmoline off. Worked on this one, and my other four SKS's. Took me a few hours after dinner to get her all cleaned up. Don't forget to take your firing pin apart and get the cosmoline out of the channel and if you use kerosene remember to oil the rifle afterwards, it'll leave your rifle dry and in need of oil.I had ordered two and both arrived today!
Andurp: Mine were packaged exactly like yours. The T-shirt was a nice surprise! Thanks Marstar.
OK... does anyone have any tips on getting the cosmoline off? What's the best way to do it?
Plan is to keep one stock-as-is... and the other I plan to turn tactical!
Cheers!
Good luck!

Haven't even gotten home long enough to open mine yet, hope the numbers all match! Got the "as new" model 59/66.Can't wait to get a few hours at home to enjoy the unwrapping!
When you are up to your ass in alligators, it's hard to remember, the initial objective was to drain the SWAMP!
Johnone, hope you are reading this. I didn't get a new "59" and just want to post this so hopefully there is a way to avoid this in the future. I put my name on the email list a while ago, between being put on list and guns arriving I moved and had to change emails. Emailed "lots" and even phoned trying to remedy situation, no answers to my emails and couldn't get anywhere with phone calls. Young fellow with accent who answered calls was sure there was no list, don't make/take lists and wouldn't put me through to you. I realize that stuff happens but just wanted to bring this to your attention. Would have pmd you but I was sure you didn't want pms about business but to go through "channels". Not a rant or trying to be vindictive just a heads up so to speak. Thanks for bringing in interesting stuff.
Did you guys get the cleaning kit (usually in the butt stock) with your guns???
No. Mine was missing. I got the double leather ammo pouch though.
I emailed about it to have them put it in my other order for an "As New" Yugo M48, but I haven't heard back yet. I may try to call later today.

My M59 arrived today! Pics to come. The most cosmoline I've seen on any of the SKS I've had to clean!
