Came in today at my local ffl. Bought it from Budsgunshop.com. I went ahead and accepted it. Here are some pics. I did not realize that it was canted until further inspection at home. The FFL were closing in 5min. and I left.






Came with two good steel mags. Here are the pics of the canted sights and possibly gas block.




I have not shot it yet. But should I go ahead and just contact CAI?

Wow both the stock and barrel are canted to the right as far as I can see. The gun is gonna feel funny when you shoulder that.

I would call up CAI and raise hell about that.

The #1 reason I don't buy anything made by CAI....quality control

Just give it a good look over and make sure everything is OK before you leave your FFL. If anything is wrong your FFL can send it back.

I would send it back for a good one or my money back.



That thing is beyond the heavy hammer fix procedure.




Sorry considering it is a Yugo and you are from Yugo.




My Century Yugo underfolder M70AB2 is a fine AK.

I want to, but I don't want my first AK to be one I am irked about. I am going to OCD over this. I'll just wait until I get a replacement from CAI.

Update:

Called Century this morning, and they are going to issue me a prepaid return label. Jennifer Trombley was really nice on the phone and polite and professional. I asked her what the return turnaround was and she said 3-4 weeks at the moment. I also asked if I get a replacement that I receive the stock with an Eagle crest, since that's how I originally bought it, and she made the notation on that.

I'll keep you updated.

It's a shame to...


They have had problems for years with canted sights on the Romanian rifles.





Drunk monkeys and all that...
