"Santa" was nice enough to drop off a Yugo m48 and 100rds for Christmas. Love the rifle its in really good shape and has nice light aftermarket trigger.
Only 1 problem. Looks like im 5-10 years too late to the game for the good surplus ammo.
I have searched all over the internet and its difficult to find in stock. I managed to get my hands on 500rds of yugo surplus. Mix of 50's on up it seems (need to look at a few more)
Now, Ive read pages and pages on the stuff. Some say it problematic, others have fired 1000's with little problem. Quite a few threads on case failures and that has me worried.
I always wear eyes
If I do happen to split a case, whats realistically going to happen to me and the rifle ?
In the event of a ftf, how do i cycle the bolt to try and restrike ? Wait 30 secs and then what ?
Thanks a bunch. I enjoy lurking around here.
