The M59/66 is a Yugoslavian licensed derivative of the Soviet SKS semi-automatic rifle.
In Yugoslavia, it received the popular nickname “papovka” derived from PAP, the abbreviation for poluautomatska puÅ¡ka, or Serbo-Croatian for “semi-automatic rifle”.
The M59/66 functions identically to the SKS, but has a permanently attached grenade launcher spigot that also serves as a muzzle brake.
The weapon was also produced with a folding grenade launcher sight which is normally folded flat behind the front sight.
