[Helen Keller]

picked this up yesterday.

Came with Type 1 bayo and 3 30's .
I don't have a single gripe about it.


Discoloration is Oil .



These are made for Century by ATM in Fridley, MN

Everything is perfect. IF you want a milled gun and don't feel like hunting down an older chinese or paying what arsenal wants nowadays this is the ticket.


Range test tomorrow.

Looks very nice.

I want one!

[Full Otto]

Nice good to hear.
Did that pillow survive?

Im saving up for one then buying a underfolder set to install on the milled reciver yes i know how to drill an tap for the underfolder Some were in america there is a milled reciver mak-90 ( 386 ) with a chinese underfolder stock. the rear tang should still be on it as i never got around to weld a rear plate to cover the rear hole for the stock.

off to the range I go....

[Helen Keller]

60 rounds of Yugo

No problems.

Zero'd at 25yds grouped about 50 cent sized from shooting kneeling. I need a 5rd mag to bench it.


Was making hits out to 400yds with ease.

I like this thing and the weight sucks up the recoil.



Now off to work on the "BIG" guns...

You don't mind using corrosive ammo in an non-chromed barrel?

[Wild Bill]

[ready]

I just saw one of those at my local toy store. I almost bought it but I had to stay focused on the task at hand.

[Partisan1983]

No shit !!!

When did these come out ?


How much are these going for ?

What is the advantage of having a milled receiver??? (Newbie)

Looks. Really it comes down to looks. The Milled AK is the way the AK rifles were built after the first sheet metal receiver versions failed. Eventually the Russians / Soviets figured out how to do a tempered sheet metal receiver and they called that version the AKM for Modern. So the advantage is the retro look of the earliest successful AK rifles. That said, I have to say that is one good looking Polish type milled rifle.

At one time I had a milled Polish kit, but sold it. (Wish I had it back) The steel of the receiver was polished and blued. Really the finish of the metal was nearly as good as my Remington 700 bolt action rifle. The Poles really put som effort / craftsmanship into the AK rifles they built. IMO the originals would be the best built AK weapons any of us would ever see if they could of been imported intact.

Nice little rocker, There's nothing like bringing a new weapon home. I buy them, then tear them down, clean them, then run about 250 rounds through
them, clean them again then put them in with the rest of the weapons so they don't get lonely.

Man, that's a nice looking milled AK, does that come with an original Polish barrel?

Hello, all. New to the forum and I am really enjoying it. I just picked up one of these rifles at a Ft. Worth gun show. Took it to my ranch in East Texas and sent three wild hogs straight to the devil before sundown.

My information is that the barrel is made by Green Mountain. It is not chrome-lined. The receiver is milled by ATM (Any Time Manufacturing, I believe). Evidently Century Arms contracts out the assembly of these rifles to another manufacturer, which is probably why the fit and finish is noticeably better than the average CA piece.

Anyway, I am very much enjoying my rifle and together we are going to make the pigs pay dearly for their evil deeds!

I shoot it in my M92 all the time. The Yugo Ammo is awesome as far as I am concerned. Just clean after and you're good. So far it has proven to be the most accurate of all the x39mm I've used, and feels like it has some more oomph to it as well.



Nice Pol HK. I've always wanted one of these ones. Love the Polish guns for some reason.

:welcome: to the board! How about posting some pics of the carbine and maybe hogs if you have some?

As to the difference between milled and stamped, I find two major differences - weight and "smoothness". My Type III Russian milled build just shoot so "smooth" - not so much a rattle trap as my stamped guns. But the price is more weight.

[kurbelgehause]

Is the barrel pressed or pined?
