    Need advice: Should I mod the m59/66 or not

    I have a Yugoslavian m59/66 in excellent condition and perfect working order.

    There are 2 'permanent' modifications to it:
    1.) The grenade launcher is attached to the rifle still, but a metal sleeve is welded over it to make it CA legal.
    2.) The firing pin was modified by Ben Murry in TX - it was modified and fitted with a Wolff firing pin spring. To prevent any chance of slam fires.

    I'm thinking about doing a few mods to it: adding Williams Firesights and removing the bayonet and adding a bayonet mount tripod instead.

    I don't think the modifications would be permanent I guess, but do you guys think I'd be better off selling this thing in it's nice condition and buying a project condition SKS to mod up or is a Yugo not collectible enough to even care?

    Yugo is not collectible enough to even care. It's a shooter, so I say whatever makes it more fun to shoot is a good mod to consider.
    Nehemiah 4:13-18 I stationed the families at our vulnerable spots with their weapons. The men worked in shifts to rebuild our walls; one half worked while the other half guarded. Each of the workers had his weapon either at his side or in his hand while he worked.

      Those mods aren't permanent so you can always change them back. I had the firesight front sight with the peep rear. They were just ok. The peep sight is too far forward and doesn't work as well as a peep on an ar type rifle. Also the front sight is fatter then the stock front sight.What I went with was a thinner front sight post that was more precise than the factory front post. They are only $5 and you can get them here. http://www.tech-sights.com/ Go to accessories and it's the first item on the page. Their shipping is cheap too. Mark
