Public toilets?

[Axeman]

Word, I have a Yugo and Mak. I like them both but if I had to get rid of one it would def be the Yugo

I’ve only owned a Yugo. things I don’t like about it:
1) It’s not a triangle sidefolder, it’s an underfolder - which may be more compact when folded, but it’s a bitch to deploy.
2) As a Yugo, it has longer handguards, which is nice, but just like almost every AK out there, the forward end is held onto the barrel by a piece of steel that gets really hot halfway through the first magazine.
I’m working on a fix for that.
3) Because it’s an underfolder, there’s no rail on the left side to attach a scope or red dot over the dust cover. So it’s iron sights only.
But on the cool side, it does have flip-up Tritium that still glows pretty nicely!

And I definitely like the 1.5mm receiver. Smooooth.....

So, IIRC you have an M70AB2 also, how is the MAK90 better?

Yep M70Ab2

Mak Pros over Yugo (my opinions YMMV)

1. The Mak trigger is literal butter compared to the Yugo
2. The full stock on the Mak is significantly more comfortable to shoot than the underfolder.
3. The Mak feels way lighter to me, my wife couldn't tell the difference so I may just be an idiot.

yugo love all day. m72 fo life

Yeah, at some point I want to have an M70 made into a triangle sidefolder. That’s my ideal AK. But by then someone will probably have started making them.

@CQB27 whats would you value a “de banned” SAR at?

$750 for the SAR (but you can’t buy one for that right now, lol)
$100 for the de-ban if it doesn’t require refinishing the rifle

Ok, fair points.
1) Fix your Yugo trigger. I replaced mine with a mil-spec (it was badly worn and unsafe), and the new one was terrible - but it’s a $12 part. So I got out some tools and carefully filed out the huge bumps, then stoned it, and now it’s like butter. Still long travel, but much much smoother.
2) Mine doesn’t really bother me, but I understand for some it’s an issue. If I were trying to be accurate, it would be an issue, but to me that’s not the strength of the platform.
3) You’re right, the Yugo is probably heavier. Never held a MAK, so no comparison.

What type of new trigger did you put in?

When wife and I rented a Fiesta in Italy back almost 20 years ago a nice local kept me from pumping diesel fuel into the gas tank. My knowledge of Italian was not as good as I thought it was.

But that little Fiesta would do 115 on the autostrada...flew into Venice, rented the car and flew out of Rome 10 days later. What a beautiful country!

I've driven a car in Rome Italy. After that I have feared nothing...

I did something similar 12 years ago. Went to Rome, stayed near the Vatican in a VRBO apartment for 4 days, then rented a Lancia 5-speed hatchback and drove to Florence.
Driving the streets of Rome was certainly an experience!! 4 lanes at a light, 6 cars and 5 mopeds lined up. At the Green light, everybody takes off like a race! The rules are mere suggestions, as are the lanes. Right-of-way is determined by gross tonnage.
Channel your inner Mario Andretti and may the Pagan and Christian gods help you to achieve victory!!
