Description

The Century Arms WASR-10 V2 7.62×39 Poly 30+1 # brings a no-nonsense, battle-proven platform to the shooter who values reliability over flash.

It’s a workhorse AK that skips the frills and delivers the goods. Per Century Arms specs, the V2 features a synthetic polymer stock and handguard set, reducing weight while maintaining the ruggedness this platform is known for.

Key Features

• Cold-hammer-forged barrel: This barrel is hammered into shape from a single billet of steel, giving you longer life and consistent accuracy — even after thousands of rounds of cheap steel-case ammo.
• Forged Romanian receiver: Built from a solid block of steel, not stamped or cast, providing the strength to handle hot loads and rough field use without flex or failure.
• Polymer furniture set: The synthetic stock and handguards shed weight and resist moisture, rot, and dents, making this a better choice for all-weather carry than wood.
• Standard AK-47 magazine compatibility: Accepts all standard-pattern AK mags, including surplus steel, polymer, and aftermarket drums — no proprietary parts to hunt down.
• Adjustable rear sight: The notch-and-post sight system adjusts for elevation from 100 to 1,000 meters, giving you the ability to reach out when the target demands it.

Who It’s For

This rifle is built for the traditional shooter who wants a proven, no-nonsense fighting rifle. It’s for the guy who appreciates the AK’s simple manual of arms, the one who prefers reliability over weight savings, and the collector who wants a piece of history that still works today. Whether you’re stocking a grab-and-go kit or building a truck gun, the WASR-10 V2 fits the bill.

Pros and Cons

• Pros: Legendary reliability, affordable 7.62×39 ammo, forged receiver, cold-hammer-forged barrel, lightweight polymer furniture.
• Cons: Fit and finish are utilitarian — don’t expect a match-grade trigger or polished bolt. The polymer furniture feels less robust than quality wood or aluminum handguards.
