Why was this removed?

Just went today to the range with the AP53 I SBRd, its the 223/556 variant. Oh boy does it rock, roller delayed guns are crazy fun to shoot.
IggyWon@reddit
Just picked up a PTR-32P. Waiting on the stamp and hating the HK tax, but it's an absolute riot to shoot.

How’s the fit and finish on yours? First one I received had a canted front sight/cocking tube, sent it back and the replacement for it had straight sights but the flats on top of the receiver for mounting a claw mount were welded on crooked and so the mount wasn’t sitting straight. On try #3 I finally got one that was good alignment / nothing crooked.
theDudeUh@reddit
Out of curiosity did you just reject it when it arrived at your FFL or were the replacements through century’s warranty?
I went through a similar saga with my AP5. First one had issues, sent it in on warranty, came back still with the same issues, sent it in again and asked for a replacement. The replacement was straight as an arrow and runs great. Quickly became one of my favorites.
Planning on getting an AP53 but not excited to play QC roulette again.
Ok_Towel1911@reddit
I purchased through Atlantic. The first time, I rejected it at the FFL and Atlantic sent another no questions asked. The first replacement looked good until I got home and discovered the issue with the claw mount/rear sight base alignment. I felt kinda bad going back to Atlantic and looking like a picky customer… so the next time I just went through Century warranty and they provided a label for me to ship the gun back to them and then sent me the replacement that I now have.

If you've ever shot a gun that's like detonating a flashbang in front of your face, go ahead and hit that like button.
TacoSplosions@reddit
Interesting way to whiten you're teeth
bubbathedesigner@reddit
Needs 1" barrel for max shenanigans and min practicality
I_had_the_Lasagna@reddit
I put the most obnoxious muzzle brake I could on my 5.56 krink and the fireballs are massive in broad daylight and I can feel the concussion in my stomach and it makes me uneasy.
Corey307@reddit
You feel queasy because you’re giving yourself brain damage. No amount of hearing protection is sufficient when you’re shooting rifle caliber from a barrel this short.
I_had_the_Lasagna@reddit
Huh I wonder if that's why my nose started bleeding right after. I shall rename her the brain-damageinator.
Corey307@reddit
Might want to get a suppressor, you’re doing actual harm to yourself and that’s no bueno.
Cleared_Direct@reddit
It’s fine, you just spend another $700 on a suppressor. Bam, same length and db as a full length-wait
MediumRedMetallic@reddit
It’s more about dumbing down the concussion. It softens the blow.
Source: I built a 7.5” AR308 for fun!
joeg26reddit@reddit
Softens the blow?
I told my gf less teeth
c0ldgurl@reddit
Learned this the hard way. Looking to lengthen the barrel on that fun, loud mistake.
scottiecrossfit@reddit
MAWP WHAT??!?
Frosty-Willow-8273@reddit
MY EARBALLS!!!
BlasterDoc@reddit
YEAH! FIREBALLS!!
chunt75@reddit
Before my can got approved, my SAM-7K was like that. Especially indoors. To say I was disliked at the indoor range in the winters is an understatement
TheBlackComet@reddit
I have a lone eagle in .308. It is a rotary breach hand cannon. It is intense to say the least. It kind of feels like punching a brick wall. I have one in .223 and that is honestly a pleasure to shoot
hruebsj3i6nunwp29@reddit
This plus the ARHK, auto flash bang dispenser
Crafty-Strategy-7959@reddit
Keep going I'm almost there
hruebsj3i6nunwp29@reddit
Get a flash enhancer or brake for added fun
NewbRedditer@reddit
Id buy one of these with a 16 inch barrel, these shorties... No thanks

Pacman8909@reddit
Frt this asap wit as design new frt
Ok-Basket-9890@reddit
FUCK that. I’ve shot one of these full auto before, and while it was funny to dump a mag out of it once, there’s no way in hell I’d ever buy one of these myself let alone FRT it lol. I’ve already got enough brain damage. Full size for sure though
CrankyOperator@reddit
My reluctance is 308 prices vs going deaf (I'm already near deaf.)
bubbathedesigner@reddit
WHAAAT?
Pacman8909@reddit
I’m half way wetaded so this has been on mind for while, is it crazy I’m looking for 6” model
Enutty1776@reddit
you do it
Pacman8909@reddit
I make gun content it’s on my mind ngl @fullylegal.j on IG
75w90@reddit
Yum.. import
uncleacidsdeadbeat@reddit
I get that its a configuration of someone else's (HK's) rifle thats impossible to obtain without spending stupid kinds of money, but at the end of the day you're still spending $1400 on turkshit.....
bulbousgrandpa@reddit
These are built with HK licensed tooling, it's not like this is a horribly reverse engineered version of an HK gun
pandamonia23@reddit
Where's the AP5 deals? Do we need to wait till August?
CompetitionIsKey@reddit (OP)
Same site has AP5 but idk if it’s a deal https://bickhamfirearms.com/product/century-arms-ap5-core-9mm-blk-8-9-301/
isthatcake2@reddit
Atlantic currently has the AP5 core bundle with 6 mags, sling, and cleaning kit for $1350. If someone has to buy it now, Atlantic’s bundle would be a better deal vs this dealer has it for $1305 with one mag. The extras in Atlantic’s bundle are worth the extra $45.
QuasisteIlar@reddit
Yeah, that's just kinda standard price now for the full kit with extra mags, it seems. I don't think it's a bad deal, but finding those under 1k deals like we used to might be over. And if you do hit 1k, it'll be the LT version with no extras (which may be what many want--it's just no tri-lug).
Hyena_Historical@reddit
What's a reasonable price to get an AP5 in the current market?
Echo_Raptor@reddit
$1000-1200 for the core. They don’t go on sale like they used to though
Iliketeethdds@reddit
That's been sold out for weeks bro
ZigZagZero@reddit
Oof not a deal at $1300
NewbRedditer@reddit
1305... Nope
Kookaburra2@reddit
I've been wondering the same thing - they seem to be imported in spurts. I just check atlantic regularly now
Platanium@reddit
I don't need it
Sure-Crazy3212@reddit
Yes u do
HyperionArmament@reddit
Deal on AP53?
KeyAcanthocephala881@reddit
I bought mine from thegunshopusa.com for $1359 shipped.

mattbick2003@reddit
https://atlanticfirearms.com/mkecentury-ap53-pistol- Atlantic pretty much dominates with century imports
djburn831@reddit
If I wanted to sbr this doesn't it use a specific stock/spring?
KeyAcanthocephala881@reddit
Just anything that has buffer built in, you can use the cap that’s already installed take it apart and buy a g3 butt will mount into existing cap along with buffer and guide spring.
GuysLeeFanboy@reddit
“WHATT?!!”
Package_Objective@reddit
Just get a SW 500 magnum at that point.
ArmFun4566@reddit
Needs the most obnoxious tank brake temu has and a trip to the indoor range.
battle_schip@reddit
One of those guns where the length of the bullet + casing is nearly as long as the length of the barrel sending it
Cool-Tip8804@reddit
Slightly off topic. How are younger brother versions of this by century?
Diligent-Parfait-236@reddit
I don't think century imports the 4" mp5k size one.
Shame.
Extra-Minute-6712@reddit
Does anyone import a 4 in
BiggyIrons@reddit
I have the AP5-P and I’ve got about 3-5k rounds on it without any malfunctions that went user error. I did have to sand down the mold seam in the pistol grip and also dremel the mag catch to make HK mags come out smooth, but for 1/3rd the cost of an HK for 90% of the function you can’t beat it.
X_saber_deval@reddit
I have the AP53 and it’s surprisingly nice. Put some good wood furniture on and a silencer and she goes boom.
Way_2_Go_Donny@reddit
In the immortal words of Nancy Kerrigan:
Whhhhhhyyyyyyyy
Subverto_@reddit
Meanwhile I'm over here thinking my 16" SFAR is too fucking loud to shoot under my range's covered firing line. I can only imagine how awful this thing is.
GhostofDaiLi@reddit
Loud does not begin to describe it. I have an 8 inch with a procomp on it. Thing sends shit flying off tables with the concussion.
DUCK_FACE_JONES@reddit
When frt for this
Mahlegos@reddit
Whenever ASD releases the ARHK
Fearless-Jeweler-318@reddit
I would rather buy a turkshit 1911 that shoots 12 gauge
Sonic_Is_Real@reddit
How bout 50bmg
aoanfletcher2002@reddit
Yo, that’s stupid awesome. With emphasis on stupid.
LegendActual@reddit
I think you go to Brazil for that.
Ohyourglob@reddit
Have everyone at the indoor range hate you using this one simple trick!
BerniceFighter@reddit
I dont like this configuration but I love seeing more offering by MKE.
