New AK in the family!! (Pics)

[AKElroy]

OK. 10 years ago I picked up an Armory USA AK-47, and promptly turned it into a mall-ninja poser w/ dust cover rail, Aimpoint Clone RDS & Krink "Jungle Carbine" brake. It shot decent enough, but in typical WASR fashion, the sights were badly mis-aligned, and it had to go.

Having always craved a QUALITY AK, I new another would find its way across my path. This time, it would be different. Here it is -- Polish 1960 Milled, Tapco G2, Ironwood furniture, Ultimak Rail, Aimpoint 9000L 2MOA RDS in Aimpoint rings, AK-74 type brake and finally a neoprene recoil buffer & 6 steel bulgarian un-issued mags.

The Aimpoint co-witnesses perfectly with the irons, and with zero adjustment the dot is perfectly centered in the notch. this Century build is actually straight!!

I will sight it in at the lease this weekend; pics to follow. I like this one A LOT. let me know what you think---

Nice. Beautiful wood.

The wood in the GB photos really drew me to bid on this one. The guy really did a nice job finishing the Ironwood birch. It was with some conflict that I removed the tube cover for the Ultimak. It definately looked better without the rail & RDS, but I want it for pigs & my astigmatism really doesn't let me see irons very well anymore.

Very nice, is it a one-off build, or can someone find that at a place like Atlantic Firearms?

You can find them on GB, atlantic, buds or direct from century. If i were ordering direct, I Would go with K-Var. You wont see the ironwood furniture or the other bolt-ons, but you can find the basic rifle for high fives to low sixes.
