G24(t) / VZ.24 8X57
TOP: ZAVODI CRVENA ZASTAVA / Kragujevac YUGOSLAVIA
BOTTOM: Harrington & Richardson Model 340 (Completed receivers Made by Zastava Yugoslavia) fitted to a newer stock (by me) but this rifle was assembled by H&R with a Douglas Barrel.
Parker Hale Model 1100 Lightweight in 6.5X55 Swedish
TAP-66 Finland. VZ.24 action fitted with SAKO components and barrels.
Unissued Yugoslavian M48 Mauser but that Elm stock have received many years of hand rubbed raw linseed oil.
I wouldn't have this rifle it it wasn't for Corwin Arms. #sadtheyclosed
M48 MAUSER STOCKS https://youtu.be/nxQA-pp-DhQ
EARLY M48 Beauty & The Beast https://youtu.be/sGTXuaxZUIc
Yugoslav Y-Harness System https://youtu.be/6DRbk0eWECM
A Comparison of three Mausers: https://youtu.be/5oeTOgNKe0k
This work horse has walked a lot of miles but was well maintained. The bore is 'excellent' but the Yugo bolt does not match.
Still running strong with a tight chamber
Josip Broz Tito would be proud.
This Yugoslavian K98k has almost no blueing remaining. The Yugoslav Crest on the receiver has been partially polished off by the hands of soldiers (probably in the trail carry position).
The Yugoslav bolt is non-matching and the wood is replete with scars but she is adorned with an excellent barrel, good headspace, a trigger that breaks like glass and shoots 3 MOA from the prone supported. The rifle loves Hornady 195gr .323" Interlocks, IMR 4064, PPU brass and WLR primers.
Under Josip Broz Tito's leadership the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia and it's brave Partisans would not be defeated by Hitler, Mussolini, Chetniks, Serb Royalists or the Croatian Ustaše. After WW2 even Stalin failed in his many attempts to assassinate him. The odds of Josip Broz dying of old age would seem impossible (but true).
If this old Jugo K98k could tell its story I have no doubt that it would be full of heartache and suffering but it would be coupled by pride and determination.

You saw that video did you?
I've been getting grief from Serbians calling the original article "Bosnian misinformation and propaganda".
To one extent or another a portion of their society still holds a high degree of malevolence for one another.
I suppose I can understand that. I've been reading a book called "THE HERETIC' the life and times of JOSIP BROZ - TITO by Fitzroy Maclean. It's an eye opener.
You know when you just shouldn't have sold that rifle.....
All matching. Right down to the bayonet and scabbard. Sixteen years and still not over it. Make the pain stop!
I can relate I had a g block and it was a lazer should never have sold it
