I was just wondering how, quality wise, do the Century AK receivers stand up against some of the popular receivers used by DIYs?  I have both a SAR 1 and 2, and they seems to be well made.  Also, am I correct in understanding Century does not sell their AK receiver?  Thanks

The Century SAR receivers that you talk about are some of the BEST on the market.  That's becasue they are made in the Romanian military arms factories.   As far as I know, they do not sell them individually.

Thank you for that nugget!  I did not know the receivers were foreign.  Several things about them I found appealing.  One was the "bump" where the trigger pins is placed.  Second, the way the upper rails are stepped.  Thanks again.

I guess that means with the new barrel and receiver laws, Century will shortly run out of their AK rifles.  Is that correct?

Not really. Century imports low-cap 10 round only rifles and converts them to accept Hi-cap mags. No new law has been passed on barrels or receivers, just a stern enforcement of previous regulated policy.

You mean SAR recievers are available seperately since when?....  Where are these available?....
