I don't know if it's recent production. I did have a Century AR about 3-4yrs ago. It was an old A1 surplus parts kit, built on a cast Oly lower that Century had their own name on, post-ban of course by grinding off the bayonet lug and permanently fixing a muzzle brake on the end. The whole thing was refinished in what appeared to be Hi-temp BBQ paint. It would seem pretty hard to screw-up building an AR, so it prabably can only be so bad. Of course we're talking Century here. If anybody could screw-up an AR build, it'd be them.
I never shot it. I bought it as a beater, but ran across a great deal on something else and used it as trade. I saw an ad for newer production ones, and it was an A2 variety. I'd really want to know more about the parts origin before buying one sight unseen.
