Duration: 7:35

The Century Arms C39V2 completed a 5,000-round test, maintaining surprising 1.55 MOA accuracy despite significant internal wear. Borescope revealed extreme barrel erosion, and the bolt showed deformation, requiring force to remove. While it passed a headspacing test, other testers have reported failures with this model. The rifle hit targets at 500 yards, but its longevity is questionable compared to higher-end AKs.

Quick Summary

After a 5,000-round test, the Century Arms C39V2 AK-47 achieved a surprising 1.55 MOA accuracy. However, internal inspections revealed extreme barrel erosion and significant deformation on the bolt and carrier, raising concerns about long-term durability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What was the accuracy of the C39V2 after 5000 rounds?

Remarkably, the Century Arms C39V2 maintained a 1.55 MOA group at 100 yards even after enduring 5,000 rounds. This accuracy was surprising given the significant internal wear observed during the test.

What internal issues were found in the C39V2 after the 5000-round test?

A borescope revealed extreme erosion inside the barrel. The bolt and carrier also showed significant deformation, with the bolt becoming stuck and requiring force to remove, indicating substantial wear.

Did the C39V2 pass its headspacing test?

Yes, the C39V2 passed the headspacing test as the bolt did not close on a 'no-go' gauge. However, the reviewer noted that other testers have reported headspacing failures with this specific model.

How did the C39V2 perform at longer ranges?

The rifle was tested at 500 yards and successfully hit steel targets using standard Wolf ammunition. Despite hitting targets, the reviewer suggested the barrel was likely nearing the end of its service life.
