Century Arms AK74 Features

The Century Arms AK74 is a semi-automatic rifle that operates on a long-stroke gas piston and 2-lug rotating bolt action.  Built on Bulgarian parts kits, the AK74 offers the reliability and durability that AKs are known for in a lighter-recoiling platform.  These rifles are built with a 16.3 inch barrel that includes a removable muzzle brake designed to fight recoil and muzzle climb.

Century Arms AK74 Capacity

The AK74 is chambered in 5.45x39mm and feeds most commonly from 30-round detachable box magazines that have a slighter curve when compared to its 7.62 caliber predecessor.  Though its standard magazine capacity is 30 rounds, smaller 10 round magazines can be found, as well as 60 and 75 round drum magazines.


The AK74 measures 37 inches long and has an unloaded weight of 6.8 pounds making it slightly longer than the AK47 but slightly lighter.  This rifle scores better marks for mobility due to its lighter recoil allowing its user more control while firing in full auto and, arguably, more accurate semi-auto fire due to less recoil anticipation by the user.

Century Arms AK74 Ergonomics

Ergonomics
The AK74 copies the control layout of the AKM while offering nearly identical ergonomics with the addition of an improved handguard.  Since the start of its production, the AK74 has been made with fixed or folding stocks, and some AK74 models can be found with AR15 style stocks attached.  The Century Arms AK74 has a more in-line stock to reduce muzzle climb.


Century Arms AK74 Fit & Finish

The Century Arms AK74 is built on a Bulgarian parts kit and is found with many different finishes and components.  All include stamped receivers, however some have wood, polymer or Bakelite furniture with its steel components sporting a black phosphate finish.  Disassembly and cleaning are done identically to all other standard AK pattern rifles.
