1. LOL

   I have heard that you can get lucky and get a decent gun from them, but I’ve heard way too many stories to take a chance ordering one. I’d have to inspect it in person.

   1. Weer has a whole series on a FAL. He’ll let you know what he thinks about them 😉

      1. There was nothing wrong with my Century FAL that $100 in parts and gunsmithing couldn’t fix.

         Of course the gun smith is a personal friend of mine so his prices were very reasonable.

         But as I bought it the gun was non-functional.

2. Ahah! I see what you did there…

3. One fact checking fail: You can’t simply replace the full-auto lockwork with semi-auto lockwork to create a legal rifle. The whole receiver has to be replaced under the BATFE’s “Once a Machinegun, Always a Machinegun” policy.

   1. AFAIK Century brings the with the receiver torched and as parts kits, not guns. That is ATF’s directive which don’t make a lick of sense.

      1. Yeah the receiver is cut up and trashed, although I’ve seen the remains of the receiver sometimes included in parts kits.

4. I am laughing, indeed.

   My WASR works fine, but I know Century’s reputation.

5. I’ve seen more than one person bring in a Century CETME to the gunsmith with the desire that it fire more than three rounds in a row without jamming.

   I’ve also owned a WASR that worked like a charm… at least during the short amount of time and small amount of rounds I ran through it.

   Sometimes the crack addled monkeys get things right!
