I always enjoy your videos Rob. You better break out the body armor and face shield because I don’t think this rifle is going to make it much longer.
Thank you for the informative video. I recently bought a C39V2 (unfortunately before seeing this video). Being relatively new to the AK platform, can someone tell me if changing out the stock CAI BCG with gas piston for standard BCG with no lightening slots would help the rifle durability/longevity overall? Also if getting a replacement BCG and gas piston I take it there are no different types (i.e. one meant for stamped or milled receivers)?
Interesting. Do these Century rifles use US bolts and carriers? I presume this is a heat treatment issue?
The C39V2 and RAS47 are supposed to be 100% manufactured in the US. I have never seen or heard anything to suggest that wasn’t the case.
It appears that CAI still hasn’t solved the riddle of steel.

Yes, they claim that all is 100% made in USA, but truth is, that they outsource many of their rifles components to 3rd part suppliers…But their official statement is “100% US made”.
