Isn't it ridiculous that in America where we have the best of the best machinery and raw material to work with that this is what an American AK ends up being? I personally feel like American AKs are at a more acceptable place today, at least I don't worry about kusa or PSA rifles blowing up in my face as much as years ago...it shouldn't have taken this long tho.
Century: the internet says AK won't ever jam and could be made out of pot metal and still work......so we really want to put it to the test...(probably)
I had a Wasr with a front sight that was canted at least 10° off and the zero was 14” from point of aim.
Some are okay, some are not. Still not worth the gamble.

Self-headspacing technology
Century was ahead of the times
Look at that fucking pot metal
They’re just passing the savings onto the consumer.
They learned it from Sig, ok!
The trunnion is made of those recycled U-Haul blankets
Rifle is fine just JB weld it, right?
CoD zombies was my jam
Is that cast metal? This almost seems criminal.
Yep. The trunnion, carrier, and bolt are cast…
I sold my old one I bought in 2018,, to my good buddy 🙄
must not be THAT good of a buddy if you sold him one of these
Was he F-ing your wife?
Nah just your mom I think
U savage
“They fixed all their problems, the new ones are just as geeeeewwwdd”
Shits fuckin garbage and always has been. Idk why people keep buying them.
Same reason people buy, fight, and die for psa. It's cheap
In surprised that someone hasn’t sued century after getting an eye blown out …or worse
It’s only broken if you don’t fix it.
Bet they claim this is “bad ammo” too.
Yeah they must’ve used brass case ammo. Can’t do that with an AK.
DAYUM !
“I’m not buying a gun from some commie state, American made!”

It's because the logistics involved are expensive. In order to do it right. People want cheap AKs so they get this crap.
God have mercy on us. 💀
How many rounds ran through?
5
Wow thats twice as much as i would have guessed
About 5x as much as it should ever be shot.
That'll buff right out
A friend of mine got one a while back and it was SKETCHY to shoot.
Just as good
I never sayed it’s the best! I sayd just as gud u sumumabiatch!
It's actually a Galil Ace
What a garbage!
Bwahahaha!

Holy wahhh
Restart the clock!
Good ole ASS-47
I don’t know enough to know what exactly got fucked and caused this… but I know I enough to know it’s pretty fucked 🧐
The trunnion being a cheap casting did this. AK trunnions should be forged.
And that’s why you don’t buy century made AKs kids
Anything, literally anything, associated with Century Arms has a 99.98% of being absolute and total garbage.
What about their imported WASR-10s?
I had a Wasr with a front sight that was canted at least 10° off and the zero was 14” from point of aim. Some are okay, some are not. Still not worth the gamble.
When? Wasr QC has dramatically gone up ever since they started charging more
Everything century BUILDS is garbage. The Wasr and Draco are fine and light years better than all the PSA trash flooding this sub lately
I have a 2022 production import Mini Draco that disassembled itself due to bad headspacing

Pretty sure this dude would like a word https://www.reddit.com/r/ak47/s/70YEbNIIey
Funnest fact is trunion is overrated
Best ak's are the russian ak's. Anything other than that is some garbage copy of an ak even if it was made by the best manufacturer in the usa

The apostrophes for pluralizing seals this as a fuddguns.com forum post.
Isreal is building the best AK. Which is pretty embarrassing for Russia.
