I'll bet that accuracy will depend on weather the kit was built using a new or used barrel. The few "Century" complete rifles I've encounters have left a lot to be desired. I have not had anything to do with their HK clone. 0 -
Hi andy12390,
I think you will get a variety of opinions on this subject on this forum.
I assume you asking about the Cetme rifle? The HK91 is actually the clone of the Cetme which was first manufactured in Spain. HK then leased the design from Cetme.
From what I have been able to determine when Century first started to manufacture their Cetme, there were some QA problems with fit and function. However, it now appears that Century has the bugs worked out, and is producing a much better product after a number of complaints and service issues. Nothing like the power of the consumer.
I just purchased a Century Cetme several weeks ago and really like the rifle, which I think has excellent potential for accuracy. Many Cetmes have been reported to be very accurate. My initial get-acquainted session with the rifles was a lot of fun. Below is an image of one of my targets. It was fired at about 50 yards, with factory unadjusted sights, rested (not sandbagged)on a bench, with Indian .308 Nato surplus ammo.
Yes, I am not a very good shot. Somebody with younger eyes and steadier hand could probably do much better.
Anyway, I intend to add a B-Square scope mount with a red dot scope in the next month and see what the rifle with that combination.
The rifle was absolutely reliable in feeding and ejection. If you have never seen a Cetme or HK91 the spent casings are thrown to the right and forwards about 30 feet - very positive ejection. The chamber is fluted to ensure reliable extraction and leaves the casings with a very distinctive marking. Thanks to the retarded blow-back operation and roller locking mechanism recoil seems very light. I was able to rapid fire the rifle with no difficulty and could even fire from the hip (just for fun).
You should also check with these guys.

These are Cetme Gunboards and the people here are very knowledgeable. You should be able to form and opinion here with all the information available.
