Ok, guys, here's the deal. I just came across a Century Imported L1A1 Sporter (FAL knockoff), with an IMBEL reciever. I don't care to hear any CAI bashing, or any of that crap, start your own thread, and let the hate grow there, I just want to know one thing-
How do I check the headspacing?
Everything else on the rifle appears to be good. Decent finish, decent function... sights... check... I'm just concerned about the headspacing.
-I've read that in the past, century was sloppy on some L1A1 sporters, like their Cetmes can be, and I just wanted to double check and reassure myself.
Is it easy to do? Should I have a gunsmith do it. I'm fairly proficient with firearms, but I don't know if I need a special tool for this, or if I can check it with some "rule of thumb" tip.
Thanks for all the help,
Teflon
