OT Question about rifle.

Post by donnerwetter58 »

The most common Cetme rifles were the ones built by Century Arms. These were a real crapshoot as Century hacked a lot of these together into marginal rifles at best.
There used to be a website, cetmerifles.com but it seems to no longer exist. That sight was a wealth of information on the Cetme rifles including a "checklist" for Century Cetmes to increase your chance of getting a good one.
Recievers vary as you will see the Spanish parts kits built on stamped steel recievers, cast stainless steel receivers and cast aluminum receivers.
Way back when, the early Cetme rifles were imported by a company called Mars. If you find a Mars import they are quite rare and pricey, especially the early ones with the 3 pin receivers.
Do a web search for Cetme rifles or check out www.surplusrifles.com.
