Yugoslavian SKS Sling

Original Yugoslavian SKS sling with oil bottle pouch.

Pouch has "BK" stamped in a circle.  

BK, Boiuno Kraguyevac (or as close an approximation as you can get using the English alphabet) which means Kraguyevac Arsenal.  The factory that was hit by Cruise Missles in 1999 was Zavodi Crvena Zastava. Same factory that once made the Yugo car. I learned that one researching the M48 sporters made at ZCZ with the ZRAK mounts much like the Bosnian Sniper rifles.  It is in the same town as the ordnance factories Preduzece 44 and Vojno Technichiki Zavod (this is probably the BT marking also seen on some Yugo stocks). Guess what town all this is in? Kraguyevac. The whole town must be one big complex of ordnance factories.
