Seems like Century Arms would get parts or pieces and slam them together. If it went BANG they were good to go. Like scummy guys who dealt in mil-surplus stuff in times past. Or maybe that’s them, still going.
Ditto. Century has a reputation of “Monkeys with hammers”.
Had problems with early Century Arms “AK-74.” Had to gut it. Rebuild it. All the time thinking, why didn’t I just start from scratch?
