BEFORE

Yay! Rescued! The BBQ paint is very tactical though...

Nice job O/P. I'm sure the k98 breathed a sigh of relief at wearing a proper stock!

squirreltron · Oct 23, 2013

Damn!!!! What a gorgeous job

SparkOfLight · Oct 23, 2013

That is beautiful, well done!

Nice, I'm looking for a stock for my model 98, where did you find yours?

Hawkshadow · Oct 23, 2013

Way to go Dutchie - looks great!

Nice job.

Tietang, watch ebay, and gunbroker, and gunboard.
One of the big US importers may have stock sets, Rguns maybe?

its a sin ,to have to ,put that stock, on a Yugo 98.

Lever Arms is selling complete stock sets with metal as well, they are Ex-Yugo. Same stuff Zib Militaria is selling, but won't ship to Canada.

It looks ot be a post-war production BRNO stock for the East German contract, not a latewar semi-KM.

SparkOfLight · Oct 23, 2013

Did you refinish the stock? If so, what did you use?
Also, I'd love to know how you inlaid the markings.

Great restoration of that Yugo rework K98k! I still need a Yugo K98k for my collection some day. They are an interesting variation.

kjohn · Oct 23, 2013

Right on! Looks like a real rifle now.

LawrenceN · Oct 24, 2013

Beautiful work! I'm more of a Canadian arms fan myself, but I can sure appreciate the job you did on that old girl. Good on you!
