My LGS has one of these for sale. I keep looking at it and thinking about it. Does it suck? I mean it's a Century so I figure it might but I thought I'd ask. I'd be around $850 or less OTD. Thanks |

Big no from pretty much anyone familiar with AKs. Not a clue but I would find that really hard to believe. I remember his RAS47 review where literally everything failed. The bolt and carrier got chewed up. Both trunnions got beat up. Even the FSB broke one side of the hood off when the rifle fell over. Then to top it all off the rifle lost headspace before the 5000rd test concluded. |
