    The night sights still functioning. Major parts on mine are matching. The stock was re-stamped with few light handling marks. Blue 99%. Overall very good condition. Tradex is great!

    All visible numbers match and it has a ported grenade launcher. Now to clean and see what shape the barrel is in.
    I used mineral spirit to clean the rifle and it works really well. It had taken me two nights to clean it...

    Ooo I hope mine has night sights. Been watching a lot of videos on YouTube and they look sick.

    I am OK with mine not having night sights. If a prefix D or E has them they were added later, possibly during refurb.

    Used a heat gun today, a pain in the ass to heat/wipe/heat/wipe as I couldn't get the cosmo to run off.

    That's all I ever use. Heat it up, wipe it of and repeat. The stock I wrap tight with many layers of paper towel, put it inside a black garbage bag and lay it on the dash of the car on a hot sunny day. You need to change the towels and repeat a few times. Pack the inside with paper towel as well before wrapping it up.

    3 hours from start to camera. Used mineral spirits then detailed with simple green and boiling water.

    Very pleased with this E prefix (no night sights) Yugo. The barrel has been shot but it is far from being shot out. Trigger group and gas piston look new, bolt has seen some use.

    What did you put on stock after you used mineral spirits?
