    Very nice. I bought my Century M70AB2 over 10 years ago. Came with battle worn wood hand guard and bake a lite grip. Also came with a certification from Zastava Arms. Parkerized in black. No issues, only the front sight was canted. Shop where I bought it from rectified that. I did buy new tritium tubes for the night sights, which are a nice thing to have.

    Brother it's been awhile since I've talked with ya' but I have to say you have such a beautiful collection, I've been following you for awhile now, and seeing all your project rifles, handgun kits and things to be finished. I really enjoy your channel and would love to see your collection if that's something you would ever share, and I totally understand if you didn't.
    But my friend, just beautiful for what I've seen from ya'
    I hope you and your family are happy and healthy
    God Bless you and thanks for sharing your beautiful collection

      @V8SKULLS yes sir it has been a while, I was quite bust for a few months traveling for work and didn't get much time for content unfortunately. I appreciate the kind words as well. I'm not quite ready to show off the collection yet, my current house doesn't really have the best setup for it, but we are hoping to build over the next couple of years and fully intend on having a basement with a nice man cave where everything can be displayed properly. It'll just take some time lol, like my projects. My family and I are happy and healthy, and I hope you and yours are as well. God bless.

Had some major set backs, work, Massive auto accident, my youngest daughter going thru a divorce and her and grandkids moving in. It's Life and family. So thankful to be alive, slowly becoming healthy, and many hours or days of physical therapy in my future. But with God's help, I will

    Mine ( from aim) has some mild by comparison grinding at the rear of the chamber where the rim of the case would be . It's about a fingernail width wide and only on one side. Going to shoot it soon and see what if any problems arise. Thing was royal tiger levels of filthy.

    It's sad they originally marketed these as being US military trade-ins. They definitely were never owned by the military. It would be nice to know which contractor owned them, so we'd know where they were used.

    Probably not going to be an issue, but when checking the headspace on an AK (go, no-go, field, ect) it should all be done with the firing pin and the extractor removed for the most accurate reading.

    • @The_Casual_Collector
      @The_Casual_Collector  4 месяца назад +2

      @benjaminkeepfer8968 you're right, in this case I figured it'd be okay since my gauges are hollow at the back where a primer would be on a live round.
