First off: I've been looking at the Century C39V2, and I've gotten very mixed reviews. Some say it's a great rifle, others say it's crap. I've also come across the Arsenal SAM7R. I hear Arsenal is a fantastic company, who create fantastic weapons. Should I save the $1299 for the Arsenal, or just go ahead and go with the Century? (If it's worth the money). Or, should I just buy a WASR? I've asked 100 people and gotten 100 different answers about WASRs. A few'll say they've never had a problem, and would never buy another rifle. Others say they wouldn't give one to their worst enemy. This is going to be my first rifle purchase. I don't want to buy some piece of junk that will fail on me when I need it most.
TL;DR: Is the Century C39V2 good, or do I go with Arsenal SAM7R? Or even WASR?
