dubya 198 Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Seen it on a grossly overpriced S12 at a local store. $1289! Looks like all it has is the pistol grip and a Tapco FCG. unbelievable... Anyway here's the pic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vulcan16 971 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Century Arms uses that style grip on many of their "builds." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dubya 198 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 That makes sense, it's a century gun. Not sure what makes it $1300 though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Maxwelhse 1,285 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) Century builds usually don't have the finger grooves, mine didn't. Otherwise, yup, it looks a lot a like. Mine got transplanted by a Hogue double fast. The stock grip was the worst I've ever felt. edit: Century does S12 conversions now?

Century uses that PG on many Yugo underfolders, AK74's & Polish tantal builds. Edited February 27, 2013 by Jetmech Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mullet Man 2,114 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) Isn't it a Yugo pistol grip off like an MB70 (no idea if that's a real model) or some shit? Edited February 27, 2013 by Mullet Man Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Maxwelhse 1,285 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) I did some more research... My Century Yugo M70AB2 (Underfolder) had a very similar grip, but not that exact one. No finger grooves. It looks like they build them both ways. I will reiterate that my stock grip was GARBAGE and actually hurt your hand just to grip it firmly. For what it's worth, my Century Yugo is as good as any I've seen and the price certainly was right at the time ($505 OTD w/2 yugo mags). So, is Century actually doing conversion work on these S12 or just importing one of the models that has the FCG in the correct location and making them 922R compliant by swapping a few parts? edit: My mistake... My underfolder is an M70AB2, not T Edited February 27, 2013 by Maxwelhse Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scoutjoe 276 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Century is doing the builds, don't know if they have contractors doing the work or if it is being done in house Look in the photo and you can see the "Century C" mark, designating it as an "American " part Quote Link to post Share on other sites
M49907 3 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 My Century Yugo underfolder has the same grip. I like it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dubya 198 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 The grip definitely looks more comfortable than it actually is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Capt Nemo 882 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 I have the same grip on my Century conversion. I have small hands and I love it. The only part I hate is the stock, as it has less surface area than a 10/22. Kick Lite gets ordered from the e-store on Monday! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
