Royal Tiger Yugo M48 Restoration – From B-Grade to Battlefield Ready

In this video, we take on the challenge of restoring a B-Grade Yugoslavian M48 Mauser from Royal Tiger Imports. These surplus rifles have seen decades of storage and handling, often arriving with heavy cosmoline, dents, dings, rust, and years of neglect. Follow along as we go step by step through the restoration process—cleaning, inspecting, and carefully bringing this Cold War–era Mauser back to life. From stock work to metal cleanup, this project highlights the history behind the M48 while showing what it takes to turn a B-Grade surplus rifle into a respectable shooter and display piece once again. If you enjoy surplus rifle history, restoration projects, or want to see what kind of condition these B-Grade rifles arrive in, this video is for you. 🔔 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more surplus firearm history and restoration projects! thanks to RTI for sponsoring our videos!
