I blame Cabela's, and chances are I paid too much but instant gratification is a real bitch.

You now have one of the finest battle rifles ever designed.  Cherrish it.

Congratulations.

If you think you overpaid for that just wait until you start buying mags.  You missed the salad days by about 20 years.
I love a good double entendre.

I had one like 20yrs ago when I first started collecting, a neutered CAI and I think I had like 5 mags for it.

Theres a gun show out near Council Bluffs, IA where I'm working this weekend. Hopefully I can find a couple

3 mags for $100 bucks didn't seem too bad considering what ive seen them go for online, probably should have grabbed more.

North Country Engineering (USA) made the receiver for them.

The other one is Caspian Arms with a CA prefix on the serial number.

I have a CA made one. I got a rifle someone built a Rhodesian kit on. It worked perfect but I bought a  R1 receiver from DSA and moved it over and painted it.

The century is going to be a mutt with a collection of mishmash of parts I have picked up in trade over the years. Including a new 16 inch DSA barrel with the built in ban comp I got for 20 or 25 bucks.

I'm curious on the front of the mag well is there a crescent or a fairly large rectangle ?  I have a rectangle and it looks like an inch cut but its not just a simplified metric mag cut.

Good job!

You now have solid proof that you have a functional pair hanging but you listen when they tell you to do manly stuff.

Bought a bunch online for less than $5 a piece in the 1990’s was shocked when I sold my FALs and people were paying $15 to $20 for them.
Now that I’m getting back into the platform can’t hardly find them for under $50.
