I'm not sure but you do bring up a good point. Common replacement parts would be fairly limited to just recoil springs?

I was right btw, cheap 6906!

Probably right. I just checked Numrich for a common high mileage wear part on 59/6906.....the extractor.
NO parts for the 6906 available!
Only an after market 3 piece spring tune up kit for the 5906.

Back in the 5906/6906 days S&W didn't sell replacement parts to individuals, lots of those parts required some minor fitting. They sold parts to departments with certified armors and retailers with certified gunsmiths. That probably left a limited number of parts available in the public sphere when S&W abandoned the Gen 3 auto pistol. For me that makes a 5906/6906 cheap gun a good buy as long as you accept that when a major part fails the gun will likely become a wall hanger.

Ok Kalash experts. Here's something I should know but I'm not fully versed. Was asked a question, can someone confirm this is a double stack bolt? I believe it is but the comparison pic I was given as a reference is clear as mud.

It is a double stack. And you are correct, its the bottom thickness and width that distinguishes single from double. That bolt looks like a Romanian.

That's what I thought and that's what made sense to me since that's the part that would strip the round from the magazine. But I've got 2 ppl saying single and 2 ppl saying double and all 4 of you are ppl I consider would know lmao

Good info! I wouldn't have thought to check on that. But my guns rarely get shot :/

A Romanian non military WASR type rifle has an "intermediate bolt" one that works single and double stack. This has been discussed as nausium. These bolts do not give much if any problems. They are not as fat as a true double stack bolt, yet bigger than a single stack.

Compare the cutout on the bolt (5 o'clock when facing the bolt face) for the ejector between the two Yugo bolts you posted. If all three are Yugo bolts then it's clear that bolt you have is a double stack bolt.

So the lady at auto zone said my battery is good, it’s only at 55% charge though. She ran some codes and this is what came up. Something about a camshaft

View attachment 63779

so looks like a couple of misfires and just a cam sesnor. all should be pretty easy. I'd just start with new plugs, wires, and a sensor. if your battery is dead next time you come out, could also have a parasitic drain somewhere.

I don’t think those parts should be that expensive. I thought about buying a new battery anyways because since I’ve had this truck I’ve never changed it

Thanks man. That's what I was looking at but I was just making an educated guess.
