Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Century Arms M74 Sporter is a semi-automatic rifle chambered in 5.45×39mm, assembled using surplus Bulgarian AK-74 parts kits, many of which are marked with the "Circle 10" symbol—a hallmark of high-quality Bulgarian manufacturing. These kits were sourced from Bulgaria's Arsenal Factory, known for producing some of the most durable and reliable AK-style components. Century Arms utilized these parts to build rifles that closely resemble the original AK-74 design, featuring a stamped steel receiver, a side-folding or fixed stock, and a 16.25-inch barrel equipped with an AK-74 muzzle brake. The M74 Sporter is built on a U.S.-made receiver, which is heat-treated and pre-drilled for trunnions, making it compatible with Russian, Bulgarian, and Polish 5.45×39mm AK-74 parts kits. The rifle's design features a smooth hardwood buttstock and forend, along with a black checkered synthetic pistol grip, contributing to its traditional and durable AK-74 design.
