I am thinking about getting a Century Arms Yugo M70B1. Anyone have any thoughts on this particular AK? Thanks.

If you can actually find one anymore I'd jump on it. Do they have any in Colorodo?
Any decent gun stores in Co that might be worth checking out whenever I'm up there? I'm in central NM. |

I own my own firearm business, so getting one is not much of an issue.........just a wait. How far into Colorado do you come so I can give you some local shops to check out?

I just got my second this week.  Very happy. Gosh this AK is built solid!

Good luck let us know how it shoots... Lots of problems with some of them.

I bought one recently, in the box, and it only has one mechanical issue, a really poor "mushy" trigger...other than that it is a reliable, fairly accurate shooter...

Really? I've never heard of any problems with the Yugos. They're supposed to be very well built in general. |

Century is a joke. Read some of the threads it seems gas piston, canted sights, mag latch and binding actions are the most common. Take a look at Atlantic they have Lancasters that are reported to be SWEET!

Good work man. The more people who ignore the Yugos the more there will be for me. Mwahahahahahah! |

Got links? Mine is flawless right out of the box. LOVE it! |

Yugos are without a doubt my favorite AKs. They're built like a brick shithouse and feel so much better in my hands than either of my Romys. I've openly criticized Century on numerous occasions based on what I've seen others go through with their M70s. Having said that, all 3 of my Century M70s ran 100% right out of the box and I'd gladly buy another if I had room in my gun safe to do so.

I love it when the Atlantic Arms fan-boys attack WASRs as well - more cheap ones for me! |
