I'm considering getting a Century Arms AK 47. Are these good quality AK's?
Be nice if the OP would give us some more info.InkEd said:The CAI AKs are not usually considered that great.
. . and just which "Century AK-47" are you referring to?Averageman said:You can check them for cant by disassembling the forestock and sitting the rifle on a level surface.
Once you have everything flat then take to carpeters squares and lay one on each side of the sight, then gas block, then frame. You can tell pretty quickly what you are dealing with.
If you are willing to put some time and work in to it these can easily be fixed. I would caution you though that some issues with the reciever and the magazine well issues can be make or break with these guns. You can have so much wobble in the magazine well that it may effect function.
If I were to buy one I would buy it in person, bring the squares and a magazine and check it out very closely.

Century offers many models, from many sources.
Not all of them have the same issues.
These guys are selling WASRs too: http://www.hendersondefense.com/store/pc/home.asp You're paying more for them to have weeded out the worst of CAI's foul ups.
