Re: Which AK should I buy
Here is one tale, about a Century-branded, subcontract-built AK;
http://forum.pafoa.org/rifles-42/808...ican-made.html
Not all Century-branded AKs are as finicky, their Yugo M70's and Polish 7.62x39 guns have good reviews. Maybe more concientious subs built these??
From the tales on the 'net, the USA-made AKs to avoid are the "IO" built guns, but this is only from second-hand stories.
On the higher end, these look outstanding;

These are Iraqi knock-offs of their Yugos. Like the Century guns, enough USA parts in the builds to be 922 legit.All of my guns are lubed with BACON GREASE.

Re: Which AK should I buy
I have a new Century Zastava N-PAP. Paid $550 out the door at a Gun Show. The Fit and finish was very good (No canted sights, No Mag wobble, all rivets good, etc) and I like it very much. It eats any ammo I feed it and functions very well.
The only issue that I have encountered with it was a problem with the trigger not resetting. The double wound "Shepherds Hook" Trigger spring was slipping and blocking the trigger, so watch out for that. I was able to fix it in 5 minutes with a pair of needle nose pliers. I just gave the spring some twists and bends to keep it in place and now it functions flawlessly.
All in all, it's a great deal... I would suggest going to a show or a store so you can inspect and hand pick the rifle that you are buying to make sure there are no visible issues.
Good luck all...

Will furniture for AK's swap between stamped and milled receivers?
Let's not forget there are still species of tropical penguins living in the Galapagos.
