Thank you so much for your continued dedication to bringing the history of AK rifles to our screens in such an elequent and entertaining way. I watch or listen to your videos whenever I want to relax and enjoy learning such detailed information. Молодец, Миша!
You do a great job. I wonder how many of the rifles we confiscated back then ended up as parts kits. By the way, I picked up a Maadi MISR 10 at a local pawn show for stupid cheap not long ago. It runs great. Most of what I know of it came from you. Again, thanks.
Damn you people are dogs, no need to bring that up, no one should be held accountable for someones death only becouse they're the same nationality as the ones that did, You people sure love provoking eachother on the internet for no fucking reason. This is an informative video and what you two were on about has nothing to do with it.
Great review! Thank you! Well timed. Shot my new Yugo M70 NPAPS today. Standard stock and underfolder. Both had iron sights right on the money out of the box at 100 yards and also 300 yards! No malfunctions with Russian 123 gr FMJ mil spec ammo.
I didn't realize that Yugoslavia wasn't a Western or Eastern allied country until yesterday (12/2/20), but created it's own bloc of actively neutral countries. Absolutely badass indeed!
I have a M70 opap and a Yugo sks, have a Yugo tokarev too! Thanks for doing a Yugo variant video again! That sks looks brand spanking new lol. I love how Yugo firearms are all different from the other combloc variants. they tweak everything, as you so well described.
Thanks for watching. I bought the SKS direct from Century back in the Spring of 2004. It was graded as "unissued' by them at the time and yeah is basically new save a few minor scuffs and dings from storage and a couple range trips, cheers.
This is Sabre5G at ak Files. I think you are like me, I am 34 but I still have an appreciation of all things bad ass from the 80’s. Yugo’s and HK’s will always be some of my favorites.
haha '80s....'40s....the naughty '00s...i just like historical guns. Plus my dad took me to gunshows in the '80s, so i do recall some of these guns on tables back then. In the '80s, most local gunshops didn't really carry HK or Steyr or even most AKs. They were pretty boring.
Thank you for doing this! Yugo AKs come in dizzying (dis) array of varieties, and its really helpful when someone with your level of knowledge takes time to explain everything in details. I own several yugo's (M24, M57, M77, two SKS) and they are all excellent firearms. The quality of build is especially notable when you handle side by side chinese SKS and yugo SKS.
Yugo AK’s are my favorite. I have a m72 b1 tanker, which means it has a 16” barrel. Barrel and Receiver are USA made. I love it. It still has the cooling fins.
I did not know the M92 was such a recent design. I have an O PAP, M92, M-70AB2, and have my stepson my n pap. People talk bad about the n pap but the one I gave to my stepson was one of the best Well made rifles I ever had.
Russia didn't really start manufacturing the AKSU 'Krink' until the very late 1970s, so it wasn't until the 1980s that that design/pattern became well known elsewhere in the world. Zastava used it as an inspiration, but really the M92 has a lot of its own, unique features. It is really its own thing, especially the 10" barrel, 26mm threads, and the gas system which is longer than standard AKSU.
Cleaning rod was never used for cleaning, only to clear jams (witch didn't happened). You would be in big trouble for using anything but rope, rags and DRNČ (cleaning solution)
I know it's years later but do you take requests I found myself in m64 build and any information from development 2 standard original finishes for wood and metal or even perhaps extra serial numbers and proof or quality stampings thank you for spreading a great deal of knowledge amongst the AK community regardless of country of origin
Dude you have risen to the top of the heap. Especially for an AK aholic like me. Still looking for that meeting of the AK aholics.... i keep telling myself, just one more. Just one more. Ok i wont buy any more but then i find myself changing furniture...... front ends , slings , optics, hand guards, gass tubes , and the stocks. Oh my lord, the stocks. Should i put the mag pull on that bad boy ? Hey wait how about an underfolder ? No no a side folder. Zuckarov anyone ? Hello my name is Gman and im a AK aholic.
i love your videos so much. I recently fired my first gun it was a "Sig-Sauer P238 in .380 ACP" it was a lot of fun and cool I can't wait to try other guns like in 9mm or try something else. This once again a great video on these rifles. (Serbia,Albania and now Northern Macedonia have open up new chapters for EU accession and getting closer to EU. Which is great for the region after 90s civil war and genocide the most were Bosnia muslims but others suffered as well like Sebs,Croats, Sloveins etc.. Bulgaria moving forward with adopting the euro in next 2 years. Croatia is doing better and wants to adopt the Euro and they beat Denmark in the world Cup. Unfortunately Romania is back sliding on corruption laws and reforms and this hurts their chances at adopting the Euro. )
The Yugo guns are by far my favorite AK variants, My first gun was a Milled receiver m70 that I shoot all the time, with the heavy receiver and factory butt pad I find it no more strenuous to shoot than a 223, more of a gentile push than anything. Funny story as to how I got the thing, it was my last month of high school so I figured to celebrate by getting a rifle, walked in saw it on the wall and loved the thing but was 400 short. Came back a week later and unfortunately someone snapped it up. Come a month or so later I graduated and stoped in hoping to find something else neat and apparently the guy who purchased it was a somewhat senile elderly gent who upon taking it home realized at the end of the month he did not have the money to keep the thing. so he put it up for consignment the day prior to me stopping in, exact same rifle. Safe to say I metaphorically threw the money at the shop keep. Only thing that would make it cooler is if the stock had the crest like some of them did, but I was drawn to this one by the fact the lower handguard was milled out of the center of the tree so from the bottom you can see the rings of the birch. Great video as always!
Appears to have been an ATI rebuild, its an earlier M70 since it has the ridiculously thick top cover and the phosphorous rear night sight dots, from what I understand they switched the rear sight dots to tritium later on. Speaking of, the rifle does not have the front tritium insert for what I assume are import reasons, do you know where you can find suitable vials?
Misha, you should make a video focusing on the smsll arms used in the Yugoslavia Civil War( Maybe ask Selco Begovich from SHTF School who was an EMT at the time in Sarajevo). I hear the TT30 7.62 Tok pistol was very popular in those areas.
Mishca great video! Although i do not have a relation to yugoslavia at all I'm Greek but i love zastava products i would really like to see the zastava m21 rifle and i'ts history.
I have an older m70 Yugoslavia rifle I could not get the bolt carrier out when I field strip it unless I take the stock off The rails in the receiver go all the way to the very back and it's impossible to field strip without taking the stock off do you have any information on that?
Misha this is interesting story but i want to add something... First ak type rifle (Chinese or Albania made) in yougoslavia was from communist Albania border guards captured by yugo army, so zastava factory reverse engineered that rifles so they can made yugo ak for yugo army. Greetings from Serbia 🇷🇸
I can't help but wonder how many NDs happened because intoxicated yugo users insisted it was possible to change mags fast enough so that the bolt going forward after removing the empty mag would strip a round from the mag you inserted zippity quick before the bold moved to far
Mishaco enjoy your videos. Question: do u sell firearms? I am looking for a good underfolder to be used as a shooter-truck gun. I see atlantic is currently selling wasr U.F. Is this a good route or should I be looking used. Thanks
Great video Misha. I have a question for you. NATO had bombed Serbia in 1999 in the Kosovo conflict, how long after this did we first start to see imports from Serbia and new Zastava products? Thanks!
I have a Serbian/Yugoslavian M92 M70 AB2 unferfolder that is a preband it is crazy accurate I have took deer at 120 yards and look countless hogs at 70- 80 yards with the old girl
Btw he was killed with Zastava CZ 99 gun...Shooter pulled out the gun and shot Arkan,his friend who was high ranking officer in State Security Agency (equivalent to CIA) and Arkans good friend...all headshots...shooter was the cop btw

Best information on Yugo AK so far!
I used M70 AB2 and M72 AB1 in the army. M72 AB1 also had detachable bipod.

Thanks man. As a Kosovo veteran I appreciate this.
Thank you & glad you could appreciate this video. We try hard to study, share, and respect the histories & wars of nations from all over the world.
You do a great job. I wonder how many of the rifles we confiscated back then ended up as parts kits. By the way, I picked up a Maadi MISR 10 at a local pawn show for stupid cheap not long ago. It runs great. Most of what I know of it came from you. Again, thanks.
@sbirddesmo who were you attached to? 3bn 8th marines weapons company 81's ply here. 1999
@Saint Scanderbeg If you are Albanian, you most likely participated in butchering of my brother kidneys...
Damn you people are dogs, no need to bring that up, no one should be held accountable for someones death only becouse they're the same nationality as the ones that did, You people sure love provoking eachother on the internet for no fucking reason.

Watching this video again. For probably the 5th time. What a great video.
Misha, great video. Very informative..!
A local college should hire Misha to teach a “Communist Arms History” elective.
As a college student I’d sign up in a heartbeat. 😂 unfortunately most colleges are way to soft to offer a class on evil weapons
Or an arisaka class. Him and ian from FW are an absolute wealth of info on so many different types of firearms
Great review! Thank you! Well timed. Shot my new Yugo M70 NPAPS today. Standard stock and underfolder. Both had iron sights right on the money out of the box at 100 yards and also 300 yards! No malfunctions with Russian 123 gr FMJ mil spec ammo.

So stoked to have found your channel. Thanks for helping me catch up my AK knowledge.
My M64 (M70) should be arriving from 2 Rivers in the next couple days. Functional BHO device and all. I really like this video.
Keep UP the good work! Very informative!
Tito was a badass!!!he was the man and loved by many people
Not touching that one lol, but thanks for watching.
Salute to SERBIA
My wife and her family came to the US from Bosnia as war refugees and they have a framed picture of Tito in their home to this day.

The wood on that milled yugo is fantastic.

I just got two M70s imported directly to Zastava USA. They’re beautiful
Some more proper schooling! As always.... Great information and great show of firearms! Keep em coming thank you!
This was very informative and enjoyable thank you very much
I have an M72b1 Underfolder RPK from JRA, and it is an amazing gun.
I did not know the M92 was such a recent design. I have an O PAP, M92, M-70AB2, and have my stepson my n pap. People talk bad about the n pap but the one I gave to my stepson was one of the best Well made rifles I ever had.

You want/need an SLR106CR? Feel free to e-mail me.

Hello my name is Gman and im a AK aholic.
Kalashnikov for life
Really great and informative video. You gained my subscription.
Very very nice, great video!!
Last variant of the Zastava M72B1 LMG made by Zastava had adjustable gas block, bolt hold open safety, and the cross pin for the top cover.
i love your videos so much. I recently fired my first gun it was a "Sig-Sauer P238 in .380 ACP" it was a lot of fun and cool I can't wait to try other guns like in 9mm or try something else. This once again a great video on these rifles.

Great video as always!
I am curious, who built your milled M70?
Appears to have been an ATI rebuild, its an earlier M70 since it has the ridiculously thick top cover and the phosphorous rear night sight dots, from what I understand they switched the rear sight dots to tritium later on.
Speaking of, the rifle does not have the front tritium insert for what I assume are import reasons, do you know where you can find suitable vials?
i have a mitchel arms m70 zastava. its marked rpk but its not a long barrel. looks like a heavy duty ak just dont know much about it
Misha, you should make a video focusing on the smsll arms used in the Yugoslavia Civil War( Maybe ask Selco Begovich from SHTF School who was an EMT at the time in Sarajevo).
I hear the TT30 7.62 Tok pistol was very popular in those areas.
I love Yugo style AKs!! My first AK was an NPAP then I sold it now I own an NPAP DF and a soon to be built Yugo RPK parts kit.
Great video Misha
Thank you for watching
Im trying to find information on a mitchell arms m90 rpk 7.62x51.
Very NOICE 👍🏼.. 🗣 Woot woot !!
99!
Ozark Bear Arms YUP!! 🙌🏼
Mishca great video! Although i do not have a relation to yugoslavia at all I'm Greek but i love zastava products i would really like to see the zastava m21 rifle and i'ts history.
I dont think they're sold in the US
Beautiful guns Sir
Yall are the best
love your vids keep it up misha
Thank you for watching
I have an older m70 Yugoslavia rifle I could not get the bolt carrier out when I field strip it unless I take the stock off The rails in the receiver go all the way to the very back and it's impossible to field strip without taking the stock off do you have any information on that?
Please drop some knowledge on us regarding the M95A rifle and the kits imported into the USA.
Good video 👍🏻👍🏻
What do you think of the ZPAP compared to the NPAP?
MISHA THE MAN !!!!!! Show us the proper way to do a mag dump sometime please
Thanks much for watching. This was a vault video because we have 2 fresh videos coming up this week so are still editing those for you all, cheers.
To your knowledge do you know of any aftermarket Handguards that would fit the M72?
Where can I find a cleaning rod for the rpk , mine did not come with one , thanks
my yugo only has two slits in hand guard did i get screwed
Do you know what year or years they switched from wood pistol grips to plastic?
I have an M70AB2T. It doesn’t have bulged trunnions. Is the receiver 1.0 or 1.5 millimeter?
Is the m64 considered a high quality variant?
video on m76?
I love my m90np and m92pv
Thanks much for watching
Yes! The M90np is absolutely one of my favorite 556 ak variants!
True Pistolero right there lol Hello from Serbia
Are yugo Uf stocks longer then standard comm block UFs?
Misha this is interesting story but i want to add something... First ak type rifle (Chinese or Albania made) in yougoslavia was from communist Albania border guards captured by yugo army, so zastava factory reverse engineered that rifles so they can made yugo ak for yugo army.
Greetings from Serbia 🇷🇸
Serbia stronk
This is a biggest nonsense I ever heard about Serbian rifles...
Some sites say “hand pick year”
Are some years better?
Who is the manufacturer of that M92 barrel extension?
Is the m64 bolt carrier compatible with an m70 build?
I can't help but wonder how many NDs happened because intoxicated yugo users insisted it was possible to change mags fast enough so that the bolt going forward after removing the empty mag would strip a round from the mag you inserted zippity quick before the bold moved to far
Mishaco enjoy your videos. Question: do u sell firearms? I am looking for a good underfolder to be used as a shooter-truck gun. I see atlantic is currently selling wasr U.F. Is this a good route or should I be looking used. Thanks
He does.He is an FFL and sells on Gunbroker and has a brick and mortar store in Arkansas
For a truck gun you better look M92 and M85 pistols
Misha do you have any info on the yugo ABM 70?
Misha, what is nodak spud and why are so many ppl so excited about it???
I did not see anything about the OPap which I have two off.
Greetings from Serbia!!!
l have an M70AB2 sporter, I'm currently upgrading it because the metal stock sucks.
Eh, i'd just sell that one and look for a true fixed stock version like M70B1 Sporter, NPAP M70, or even if you're lucky; OPAP.
Ozark Bear Arms Do century arms put the side mount plates on em when they come to America?
Great video Misha. I have a question for you. NATO had bombed Serbia in 1999 in the Kosovo conflict, how long after this did we first start to see imports from Serbia and new Zastava products? Thanks!
Is the m77 by Century garbage misha?
I have a private question to ask you, do you have an email or a way to contact you?
I thought m70 is stamped
AP M70 stronk! 😎
Cool
Yugo M70AB2T.
m70 is just the bigger mans AK
I have a Serbian/Yugoslavian M92 M70 AB2 unferfolder that is a preband it is crazy accurate I have took deer at 120 yards and look countless hogs at 70- 80 yards with the old girl
الله يرزقني هذا الكلاشنكوف لتحرير فلسطين
Smells like someone's basement that is exactly what old pouches smell like.
rip arkan
Btw he was killed with Zastava CZ 99 gun...Shooter pulled out the gun and shot Arkan,his friend who was high ranking officer in State Security Agency (equivalent to CIA) and Arkans good friend...all headshots...shooter was the cop btw
There is more Yugoslav weapon in USA than in Yugoslavia
MIiishaaaaa...I wanna PARTY WITH YOUUUUU!
