| I just bought my first SAR-1 made by Century Arms. Is the gun supposed to lock the bolt open like an AR-15 when your magazine is empty? Mine gives me no indication that my mag is dry until I squeeze the trigger and it just goes "click". Let me know if this is the way it is supposed to be or if I've gotten a bum AK. Thanks! |

if you find some old yugo mags...you'll have a bolt hold open of sorts. it holds the bolt open on the last shot...but the bolt slams home once the mag is removed. there is a reason the ak has no last shot bolt hold open. it's the same reason the british purposefully disabled their l1a1 bolt hold opens. to keep crap out of the action while reloading...which is often accomplished in, shall we say, awkeard positions. |
