FAC was anti-gun. At least with their employees. Maybe a new management will help. Can't hurt.

This isn't much in the way of news, by itself, but if there is a re-launch of FAC, look for old, familiar

GAK! Century Arms, purveyor of screwed up firearms and home of trained monkeys they call gunsmiths. The only guns with "Century" rollmarked on them that aren't jacked in some way or other are the ones they imported and didn't modify. FAC can only go downhill now. They actually used to have some decent stuff. |

I'm not saying some can't be fixed if you are a decent home gunsmith, but I had two Century CETMEs that had receivers so out of spec it would have been easier just to rebuild on a JLD receiver. Ground and cut bolts, crooked muzzled brakes, you name it. even my Romanian SAR-1 had a screwed up FCG thanks to those idiots.

They would not allow their employees to carry guns on the property, have one in the car, etc. I talked to some folks there that were very unhappy with the way they were treated. |

No kidding,
Now you can order a rifle Directly from Century arms that will be charged to your credit card and takes only a speedy 1.5 years to reach your FFL and when it finally arrives, experiencing the gooey excitement of an FAL charging handle detaching itself when working the action for the first time or an AK clone with it's rear trunnion and sight canted towards to east!

Century Arms is the largest surplus importer. I respect them for that. However they should stop all attempts at assembly, and just stick to selling parts.

Those monkeys welded the front sights on my G3 on canted to the left...thank gawd the rifle seems to run ok though.
Thinking about cutting the weld, straitening it, and rewelding it |

If the triple frame is canted, and if it's held on with silver solder like the Cetme's, you can heat it up with a MAPP torch and tap it into alignment.
