Well, I ordered a kit from Century for spare parts. When I got home I was suprised to find a box in the garage (wife signed for it). It was supposed to be shipped to my work address. The box looked like trouble as it had been taped back up. Upon inspection of the contents I was missing at least half the gun, but somehow the bayonet was still there. No grip stick, bolt, feed tray, booster front site or small parts. I was told a FED-X claims adjuster will be calling. I feel a bendover coming on. I will report back with the final outcome.

it is poor packaging and is the fault of the century shipping dept. They have a cardboard sleeve to support everyting that stops about a foot short of the end of the box and everyone of mine broke(only one broke completly open) or colapsed at that point. Called century and they gladly shipped the missing parts and never ask if I pointed it out to fedex before reciept, Gloria said many many people have had the same problem. Id call century and ask why they packaged such a heavy item so poorely and when you can expect your replacement parts.

Just want to let everyone know that Century International Arms stepped up and replaced the half of a M53parts kit I received with a new kit. Although they did not communicate well, they made it right. I will continue to order from them with confidence.
