wingsparYugo M70AB2 AK47 Underfolder
Anyone have one of these? I just picked one up. Have not shot it yet and not sure when I will get the opportunity. A couple of mandatory photos.
Along side my WASR 10/63 I’ve had for years.

calugoI've had a couple Yugo's and they are good AK's, you won't regret buying one.

94hokieCan't speak to that Yugo, but I've got a Polish underfolder that was built up from an import kit many years ago and it has always been good to go. I actually have a second kit in the safe that will get built up at some point as well. Yours is in great condition from the photos.

19tassI have personally not had one, but have heard nothing but good things about them. Yours looks fantastic!

MikeinNCI had one years ago, best thing I did was to wrap some para cord around the left side for when I placed my face against it.
Also notched the right side to keep the arm from putting the safety on safe...so that it could be fired with the folder collapsed.
Sold it to a friend after having it for a year or so.
Great rifle

wingsparCool. I don’t know when I’ll get to shoot it, but if I’m smart, I’ll wait till I lick the arthritis in my neck and shoulder. Haven’t shot a rifle since August because of that. I’ve wanted an underfolder for years and jumped at the opportunity to pick this one up. I do plan on wrapping some OD paracord around the left side of the stock

WrecklessYes, I have two Mitchell Arms imported Yugo AK's. One is an RPK model in 7.62x39 and the other is a big boy AK in 7.62x51. They are beautiful weapons with Teak wood and deep bluing. Not the usual rough looking AK imports that you see. These are quality pieces made with real pride.

patwI had one years ago and it was a solid shooter. The only thing that bothered me the most with trying to fire accurately, is getting a good cheek weld that doesn't hurt. I have seen some people put paracord on the stock arms which alleviates some of the issue. There is some compromise with it but without a doubt, it is a robust gun which will last a lifetime.

Rolan_KrapsWhat I didn't like about mine was that it didn't have a chrome lined bore.

True, this gun does not have a chrome lined bore, but does that make a difference to a casual shooter? I’ve had my WASR for a good 10 years and only have a little more than 1500 rounds thru it.
