They're a Romanian parts kit on a NodakSpud receiver, look at the left side of front trunnion (under the rear sight) and you can probably see a capital "G". Look for front sight cant( mine had a little, fixed it with a punch) and if you a big guy like me ditch the midget buttstock for a NATO length Kvar piece. Also, the barrel is NOT chrome lined because it's a U.S. barrel, so clean accordingly after corrosive ammo.
Otherwise than that, shoot regularly and enjoy!!

cool
i also looked at an IO they had and it was utter junk. front site was canted so bad it was obvious from across the room hanging on the wall. the fit of the furniture was beyond bad as well. i figured for the same price this was a better rifle. i bought this more as a pass to my kids than a shooter. |

Getting my GP 1975 soon. Put some more $ on it yesterday. Seems like the best all around value out there right now.

cleaned and oiled it up todayand noticed something is not ight. the gun fails to eject rounds by hand but seems to do fine shooting.
by hand the bbolt comes back and is released by the extractor but is not being kicked out the port by the ejector. i end up with a loose round just rattling aroun in the reciver. pretty wierd but the ejects ok shooting so i guess i can live with that for now. |

yep.
took it back to the the shop and they tried a new bolt carrier and bolt with the same issue. it cycles fine shooting just fails to eject hand cycling. it will eject if you really SLAM the bolt to the rear. other wise it extracts and kind just drops the round in the reciever. someone mentioned that some designs were dependant of a fired case not a live round but that didn't make any sense to me. every ak i have owned in the past put brass into orbit, live or spent. |

Brought it home on Thursday and shot it for the first time today. I feel like I have finally arrived! This was my first time shooting an AK. Fired 50 Egyptian rounds with no issues. Only problem I am having is chambering the first round. Seems like it will only chamber if you hold and pull it back just right. If you dont hold it just right, the bolt only moves about an inch and stops. Seems a little better now that I have fired it some. May be just a break in issue.

Cleaned and lubed it good. Hand cycling issue has gone away.

I bought a GP1975 a year ago, almost to the day. I've fired about 13 rounds through it since, I really need to see if that one FTF was ammo related or not.

TBS, is the ejector in spec? Someone around here should have the measurements. I'd also disassemble the bolt and thoroughly clean it, paying attention to the extractor. |

i had it checked and it appears to be correct from what i am told.
in emailing with century they think the bolt and carrier may have a bit too much slop and are allowing the bolt to ride around the ejector on a hand cycle. they offered to let me send it back for repair but i doubt it'll be any better when they return it and i'll just be out 45.00 for shipping. i'll run it until it becomes a problem then either have the ejector replaced or get a new bolt and carrier. |
