You won’t be sorry you purchased a Yugo. I love mine. It’s my favorite shooter after my M44

I don't have a spring kit in either of my Yugo's, never had a slam fire either.

My younger brother had an SKS, I think it was Chinese, that fired like a fully auto the first time out. It worried him since he had no FL, so he sold it right away. He told me later, after checking with the buyer, that the buyer said it fired semi-auto just fine after it was cleaned properly.
I have had a Type 56 for years and clean it regularly, and it has never slam fired at all.
