Anyone know how the Century Army C93 is for quality, fit, finish, reliability, handling? How available are the magazines?
Edited - that was supposed to say 'HK93'

Mags are pricey. I think there have been a couple threads about the C93 clones and I don't remember seeing any horror stories about them yet. It is Century, so take it with a grain of salt, but the limited info so far isn't bad.
July 31, 2009, 11:23 PM
I'd suggest being careful with the C93's, at least see if you can inspect one or more in person if possible (rather than a "blind" order from an on-line store). A number of folks so far have had OK things to say about them. Others have had issues ranging from the relatively minor (receiver out of spec so couldn't take scope mount or collapsible stock) to the alarming (excessive bolt gap).
I don't own one (have a V93 instead), but got to take a close external look at 4 of them at a gun show last weekend, one vendor had 8+ C93s all stacked up - $799, in sequential serial numbers. Each one seemed to have a different quirk.
The rear sight on the first one seemed to be permanently fixed in place - I could not get the drum to rotate (stopped trying when the vendor gave me the evil eye).
The next on had a horrendous finish on the stocks (looked like my little one did it with black paper mache in daycare). The finish on all of them did not look like a match to the original HK, but this one was really bad - almost funny.
The third was the opposite of the first - the rear sight would spin all right, like a roulette wheel - would just not lock into place. (at this point, someone else picked up the first rifle, and somehow cut his finger trying to twist the rear sight).
The fourth had a rattling sound inside, like a loose part or screw bouncing around. The safety selector was also very loose.
Yes, the rear sights on numbers one and three could possibly be fixed or replaced with a new drum or screw. Number two and four were just really bad builds.
ALSO, I noted that these C93s came with the carrying handle attached (a nice add), but did not come with bipods (some of the early C93s did a few months ago). The C93s also come with a "navy" lower receiver, i.e. with a straight pistol grip, rather than the contoured one you usually see on HK 93s and HK 33s.
I was hoping to have an "inexpensive" companion for my V93. Let me use that as another point of comparison. My V93 clone is closer to an HK33, with a vector receiver built by IGF with an HK33 kit. Set me back $1599, but it runs flawlessly, and has outstanding accuracy. Had the HK33 3 position S-E-F selector (clipped and pinned to fire only in semi in E and F mode).
I recently fit a collapsable stock on it (which can be a problem with some of the Century builds, as the receivers are reportedly out of spec. So if you go with a C93, be careful before investing in a collapsing stock or a scope claw mount as they may not fit).
You might want to take a look at the V93 pictures below to compare with a C93 - there will be some large differences in config, finish and fit.

p.s. for mag and accessory pricing figure on the following (brace yourself...):
-40 rounders for $35 and up (aluminum, not H&K
-30 rounders for $75 (steel H&K and OEM)
-20 rounders for $79 and (way) up (steel H&K)
-bipod for $73-180
-stanag claw mount $150 to $230 (used to new)
-claw mount with Hensoldt 4x scope for $400-$500
on the plus side, the HK leather sling can be found for just $9.50 :)

I took the plunge and picked one up from AIM. My mags would not lock in, so I ground down the top of the mag catch with my dremel. They lock in tight as a drum now! I took it to the range a fired approx 400rnds of commercial 62gr soft point from 200 yards to 7 yards, slow and rapid fire. Not a single malfunction at the range. The sights were easily adjusted and I was able to center they up nicely. After cleaning I used a set of feeler gauges to measure the bolt gap. Mine is right at .004 with standard rollers which is in spec. The bolt and carrier appear to be in original condition without any signs of being ground down by CAI.
I found what were claimed to be original HK33 mags for 125.00 each, 40rnd HK93 for $50.00 each and 25rnd mags for $65.00 each. I'll keep looking! There is s knock-off bipod that sell for 25-50, not sure of the quality though.
August 1, 2009, 09:13 PM
I've had very few issues with mine and I probably have close to 1k rounds through it so far. The only ammo it doesn't like is Wolf Military Classic but any other brand of ammo even the standard black box Wolf works just fine.
I outfitted mine with a Hensoldt Fero Z24 Sniper Scope from CTD and it has worked beautifully. The only mags that seem to be widely available are the 40 rounders and they can be pricey. I still need to outfit mine with a bipod and try and track down some shorter mags. Gunbroker has 25 round mags from time to time but expect to pay $80+ for them.
Overall an incredibly fun gun to shoot and very accurate and comfortable to fire. The quality seems far better than your average Century build. I got mine a few months ago from J&G and paid $799 with two 40rd mags, quite reasonable I thought and I have no buyers remorse.
Here's mine....
August 1, 2009, 11:12 PM
If the C93s I saw at the gun show looked anything like the pictures posted by nwilliams, I would have picked one up. I wonder if Century has different companies building these for them, or if somebody had a really, really bad day with that particular run...

"... I know you can dance, even though you got burned. You don't need a nose or 2 ears or hands or eyelids to dance!..."—Brigette Wilmetti, age 8, Rock Springs, Wyo.
In Rock Springs, life—like the landscape—can sometimes look a little bleak. The old mining town (pop. 22,000) straddles an interstate, and there is little more than a vista of desert—that and the rock formations that sprout tough clumps of sagebrush. Children here know the meaning of hardship.
When local teacher Linda Baldwin read PEOPLE's story (March 21, 1988) on 7-year-old burn victim Sage Volkman, she decided to take it to the grade schoolers enrolled in Rock Springs' Quest-Options program for gifted children. Her kids, ages 7 to 12, were "deeply moved," says Baldwin. "They really did feel for Sage. They were so caught up by the story that a lot of big tears came down. These are kids who are sometimes teased because they're smart, and they're used to a lot of put-downs. They also know something about pain and suffering—and about how you have to go on."
So, of course, does Sage, who suffered devastating burns when her family's camper caught fire in October 1986. Last month she left her New Mexico home for Galveston, where she checked into the Shriners Burns Institute for the latest in a projected 11-year series of operations. Surgeons reconstructed her lower lip and chin and replaced the skin on her neck, allowing her to turn her head again freely for the first time since the accident. "I got a neck release, a chin and a lip," she said happily after surgery. "I've been on my back the whole time, and I'm ready to come home."
When she did go home to Placitas, near Albuquerque, she found the latest batch of the more than 3,000 letters she has received from well-wishers, including one from President Reagan. Soon to be added is the sizable stack of crayon drawings and penciled letters from the kids of Rock Springs. It was their own decision, says Baldwin. "Our kids thought it would help if we could become friends with Sage."
Some of their letters are chatty. "At about 1:30 this morning, our horse had a baby," writes third-grader John Lusch. Elizabeth Eyring wants Sage to know that "we have antelope up here.... In my family I have 1 sister and 3 brothers and a mother and a father. We're planning to stay together all our lives. I hope yours will too." Nine-year-old Dana Carter reports that the students recently studied about whales: "Did you know that the blue whale has a heart as big as a little car?"
Other letters come from children who obviously empathize with Sage. "I know how you feel about surgery," writes fourth-grader Matthew Krugman, "because I have had it on my heart and on my thigh...just remember you'll have a friend up north." Says 9-year-old Michael Harris: "I've had an operation on my neck...I had a growth and I almost died. My point is that I know you can do it." Jerry Jeff Tuft "went through an operation when I was born. My thumbs were stuck together and I had to have them apart. I think you are very brave...Roses are red. Violets are blue. You said you could. You did! You made it through!"
Taylor Rossetti, born without lower legs, minimizes his handicap compared with Sage's: "The only problem I had to overcome is having fake legs. I like to play golf, football, baseball and soccer. It's hard to keep trying, I know."
Nearly all of the children offer words of encouragement to Sage in her ongoing recovery. "Out here in Wyoming we have a plant called sage," writes Jeremy Wiig. "Sage is one of the most plentiful plants because it stands up during winter and dust storms. You are pretty much like sage in the way that you stand up against things..."
According to Sage's father, Michael Volkman, "We read all the letters, and it all helps to bring Sage's spirits up—to know that people are thinking of her."
And someday, when she recalls her ordeal, she will also remember that people, like the blue whale, sometimes have hearts as big as little cars.

Stocks tumbled by midday as investors focused on troubles at mortgage companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and watched oil prices climb further into record territory. The Dow Jones industrials fell more than 200 points and slid below the 11,000 mark for the first time in two years.
Investors seemed unimpressed by a statement from Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, who said the government's focus is ensuring that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac remain as presently constituted to carry out their mission.
The government-chartered companies at times each lost more than 40 percent on growing speculation that a government bailout is needed. A collapse of the two financiers would cause further shock to the financial system, and trigger more losses to banks and brokerages with significant holdings of mortgage-backed securities.
The troubles at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are just the latest depressing turn in a year-old credit crisis that shows no sign of ending, disappointing stock traders who just months ago who thought the worst was perhaps over.

A sense of the richness of your life can permeate your thoughts and feelings today, prompting you to think carefully about your goals for the future. Your endeavors, whether professional or personal, are likely thriving, and you may wonder if this is the right time to take an extended break. Yet while there you should give yourself some time to rest and relax when the urge strikes, short-term successes should not cause you to put aside your larger quest. Your chances of achieving the fulfillment you desire will likely become that much higher today if you are motivated by your current prosperity to rededicate yourself to your chosen path.
We often cease to maintain our determined pace of achievement when touched by success because we believe that we have earned the right to take a break. Yet the periods of abundance we meet with only occasionally can also be viewed as the perfect time to redouble our determination, as the elation we feel as we watch our efforts come to fruition can be potently energizing. Seeing a dream become reality reminds us that we are capable of achieving any goal we set our minds to, no matter how ambitious. Over time, this simple, yet valuable message loses its power to inspire us, so we should endeavor to take advantage of any and all opportunities to remind ourselves of its validity. Because you feel abundant and successful today, you will find it easier to move forward on the path that will inevitably lead to fulfillment.

Reading the letter sent to (The Signal) by Joyce Quinn regarding the Friendly Valley Recreation Board, which slammed Bob Trulik, got my hackles up ("Friendly Valley board in hot water," Oct. 18.)!
For one thing, it makes me mad as hell when people volunteer for positions in our community, and other people have nothing better to do but complain.
Bob Trulik is and has been a very dedicated member of the board, not a paid politician.
I spoke to him myself early this past summer about the pool heater, and he told me that there definitely was a problem — and he was working hard to solve it — but it would take some time.
As to Quinn's statement, "Either the heater setting is wrong or we need better maintenance," perhaps it should be "our dues should be increased so we have plenty of money to buy new equipment." I wonder how she would react to that!
In my view, the present board has been one of the best we have had in the seven years that my husband and I have been living in Friendly Valley. I know there are many other homeowners who agree with me.

Happy Post Challenge : Funny guy
We all have some favorite characters from television or movies which we find extremely funny. Some iconic characters who can make us "Happy" even when we are feeling very low or we have some personal favorites (actors) who you can relate to and who instantly brings a smile to your face. I know you might have already got his jokes or his expressions in your mind. So, this week's Happy Post Challenge is the Funny guy.
I have many favorites when funny guys are concerned. From Adam Sandler in Hollywood to Kapil Sharma in Indian television but my favorite is Steve Carell. I feel he is born with that talent, he can bring a smile to your face even with the least of expressions which he make. He is effortless and unique.
He (or his character) has a special connect with me because around a year ago I joined my office and I felt really bored there. When I used to come back home I used to watch his episodes, which used to make me feel relaxed. After few days I started to imagine what if he was the manager of my office and how he would have handled a certain situation and it really helped me relax in my office. 🙂 😀
"That's what she said" – Just writing this expression makes me happy. I hope you have watched his series "The Office", if you haven't then I definitely recommend it.
Create a new post about your own favorite funny guys, you can share what makes him stand out or any incident or moment related to watching them or your general admiration for an artist.You can be creative and interpret the challenge as you want. Spread some happiness 🙂
1. Every week I will give a theme for the "Happy Post Challenge". You have to create a new post related to that theme.You can post pictures, write poems, write your experiences or express yourself in whatever way you can. You have the creative freedom to interpret and represent it in your way.
2. To make it easy for others to find your posts and reach your blog, title your blog post "Happy Post Challenge" and tag it "Happy Post". Provide a link (Pingback) to the original post so that other people can easily connect with you and find other happy posts.
3. You should post your entries any time before the next Sunday when the theme for the next week will be announced.Remember to follow ProcessingTheLife.com so that you don't miss out on the Happy Post Challenge announcements.

Clarity and Confusion: Rico's Recent Trips to the United States Supreme Court
Randy Gordon
Gardere Wynne Sewell LLP
February 1, 2011
Tulane Law Review, Vol. 85, p. 677, 2011
The complicated structure of the Racketeer and Corrupt Organization Act has bedeviled courts courts and litigants since its adoption four decades ago. Two questions have recurred with some frequency. First, is victim reliance an element of a civil RICO claim predicated on allegations of fraud? Second, what is the difference between an illegal association-in-fact and an ordinary civil conspiracy? In a series of three recent cases, the United States Supreme Court brought much needed clarity to the first question. But in another recent case, the Court upended decades of circuit-court precedent holding that an actionable association-in-fact must be embody a set of structural attributes that would not ordinarily be present in a conspiracy. This Article analyzes these new cases, puts them in historical context, and discusses their likely ramifications for civil RICO litigation.

Circus reviews
by lucy180, 09 Mar 2011
The food was overpriced and, aside from clearly being under the heat lamps for too long, was actually microwaved. There were 3 of us and the food was neither hot nor fresh. It was absolutely rubbish (we were warned but decided to give it a try anyway).
The service was poor. After taking our orders the waitress never came back to check on us for anything and we had to ask other servers if we wanted anything.
The skits bar one were underwhelming and we sat behind a big beam so missed half of it.
The drinks were OK. I've had better.
I wouldn't waste your money. We were amazed it's as popular as it seemed to be.

Perm-X UL 4-4 is the first choice for broad-spectrum mosquito and fly control. This convenient ready-to-use, low-odor formulation is recommended for application as an Ultra Low Volume (ULV) Thermal or Non-thermal aerosol (Cold Fog) in residential, recreational, industrial, urban and other areas where flying and biting insect pests are found.
Piperonyl butoxide is the cornerstone of an effective vector control program. PBO works by blocking production of cytochrome P450, the enzyme within insects that breaks down and reduces the efficacy of the active ingredients in insecticides. By blocking the action of this enzyme, piperonyl butoxide improves the effectiveness of the insecticide, providing quick knockdown and kill, while allowing lower use rates.

ABC (9-11 p.m. ET)
Colleen McCullough's epic 1977 novel about forbidden passion and power plays among three generations of Australian landowners has been turned into a four-part, 10-hour Dynasty Down Under (see page 98). You have to hang on until the end of Part III before Richard Chamberlain, as the bedeviled priest Father Ralph, finally beds Rachel Ward, the womanchild he has loved for years, but a strong cast, including Jean Simmons, Bryan Brown, Piper Laurie, Ken Howard, Christopher Plummer, Philip Anglim and particularly Barbara Stanwyck (as the scheming mistress of the manor), makes it worth the wait. And Mare Winningham, as Ward's feisty daughter, turns in a must-see performance in Part IV. Concludes Wednesday at 8 p.m.

IF I can Change the Education System in Malaysia!
Yes, you see, it's really about books. and also, Examinations, die day they call it. Then after that everyone is as free as birds and everything is back to square one. This is rather a random post trust me, i just have a thought or two to spill here and i am not the education minister or whatever it takes to study education background of other countries so just take this from an easy perspective =) My 2 sens on how i would change this education system.
Stop Lecturers from Giving Notes but just guidelines.
The truth is Students are not lecturers' priority most of the time, papers and their own research will come first. Lesser focus will come into really planting the seed of knowledge into students. As much as i am the student who want notes where i can know black and white what's coming out from examination and score well, i must admit this system is very bias. Simply that there is no constant evaluation by the examination system (it's just a checkpoint) Our learning curve is not proportional to our education phase in a way.

Facing eviction, the century-old Harry G. Ochs & Sons butcher shop has vacated its stand at Reading Terminal Market.
The denouement of a Philadelphia retail landmark came quietly, after closing time Monday, when owner Nicholas Ochs removed signs, his butcher's block, and personal effects from the stand.
A few hours later, his wife posted news of Ochs' relocation on Reading Terminal's Facebook page. Ochs is now an employee of Main Street Market in Manayunk, managing the butcher operation there at Main and Grape Streets, effective Tuesday morning. Four of his employees are also working there.
Ochs' sudden departure surprised Reading Terminal Market management, which in February sued Ochs, alleging that he owed more than $21,000 in rent and utilities on the prime spot that his father had operated in the center of the market since 1947.

Damien Pottinger Scores 4 Goals, DU Beats SJU, 5-0
Oct. 17, 2003
Senior Damien Pottinger scored a school record four goals and added an assist on the fifth goal of the day as Duquesne defeated visiting Saint Joseph's, 5-0 on Rooney Field. The 22nd-ranked Dukes improve to 9-1-2 on the year and 4-0-1 in Atlantic 10 play. The Hawks are now 6-7-0, 3-2-0 in league play.
Pottinger's four goals are the most since 1995 when Fred Olson scored three versus Niagara in the program's first year of varsity play. Junior Matt Mehler assisted on the last three goals of the game to give him a team and personal-best six helpers on the season. Freshman Zach Varga made two saves and posted his sixth shutout of the year. (Varga and junior Bret Krotee combined on a seventh.)
The Red and Blue return to action on Sunday as they host Temple at 1:00 pm on Rooney Field.

LAIRDSVILLE - The Lunger family isn't just building skilled and champion archers. They are building strong family bonds through the sport.
Eleven-year-old Emalee took her first state championship March 23-24 at the Pennsylvania State Indoor Archery Competition at the state Farm Show Complex in Harrisburg.
She took the title in the state female cadet bowhunter unlimited AA challenge category.
But Emalee didn't just walk away with a championship. She broke a record that weekend, too.
Her score of 527 out of 600, shot on Sunday, replaced the record of 523 in that category for a one-day record.
"I had to shoot with kids with scopes and I was shooting off sights," Emalee said. "I went over to mom and started crying and said, "This is not fair. I am shooting without sights."
After Emalee shot her record round, her dad came over and told her, "You kicked their butts."
After shooting, she was thinking about the scopes versus sights ordeal. She didn't even realize she had broken a record.
"No one said anything about it. I didn't know if I even won," Emalee said.
"On Sunday, when we went into the competition, she was down on herself because she didn't shoot as well as she wanted" the day before, said her mother, Tracy.
After her family reassured her she did fine the day before, she landed the record-breaking round.
"When she started to shoot on Sunday, she was a little reserved, but her confidence grew," Tracy said with a smile.
Emalee said she was sad after the competition ended.
Her sister, Bethany, 10, also placed in the category she competed that weekend.
Siblings start young
Emalee has been shooting for about three years. Her younger siblings, Bethany and Jackson, 6, also shoot.
"Before, it was just flinging arrows in the yard. That is the way everyone started," said their father, Michael, an archery hunter who also is getting into competitive shooting.
Tracy and the kids signed up at Thunder Ridge Outdoors, 357 Camp Lavigne Road, Benton, for archery classes at the start of the year. The classes are what led Emalee, Bethany and Tracy to the indoor state competition.
Tracy got into archery about three months ago, when she got her first bow for Christmas.
Michael has the longest history with archery. He said could remember, as a child of about 4 years old, going to the Bowhunter Festival in Forksville, Sullivan County, every fall.
The Lungers now have made going together to the festival their family tradition.
Helping hands
Mentoring the greenhorn archers is Barry Sones, of Clarkstown, an avid international archery hunter.
"A dad and husband can only teach so much," Michael said.
"Barry shoots with them," Tracy said. "He would help with Emalee.
"He would stand right behind her and say, 'You weren't holding the bow right' (and he'd) show her properly," she added.
Emalee said she only entered into competition at the Bow Hunter festival last fall and at regionals and states this past March.
Michael said it's pretty amazing that both Emalee and Bethany do so well, since they are so new to competitive shooting.
"None of them have shot a lot of competition. That is what is neat," he said.
"I watched them and was really proud," their father added.
Danny Wido, bow technician at Thunder Ridge Outdoors, can attest to Emalee's achievements.
"She has got a really good work ethic and a lot of talent," he said.
Wido helps Emalee shoot when she is at Thunder Ridge with her family.
"If she puts her head to it, I know for a fact she can go a long way," he said.
Emalee shoots Hoyt brand bows. The bow she used in the championship competition was one that was auctioned off at Sone's event and dinner in January.
Tracy actually won the bow, but when Emalee got her hands on it, the weapon seemed to be made just for her.
Strong family bonds
The family recently went to their first outdoor 3D competition held by the Bloomsburg Archery Club.
"We had been shooting at Drop Tine (Archery) and that (event) was really cool for all of us to shoot together," Tracy said.
Michael said the family shoots about three to four nights a week, a couple hours at a time, and usually at Thunder Ridge Outdoors and in their backyard.
"We are there to relax and let the kids be kids," he said.
Usually, he said, the kids shoot for a while and then put down their bows and do what kids do - goof around and play.
"I haven't heard them say yet, 'I don't want to go shoot.' I hear, 'When are we going shooting?' " he said.
The family agrees that archery is a family sport and helps them stay strong and bond together.
"Shooting as a family is very important ... we want to impress upon the kids that we do things as a family and we stick together," Tracy said.
Dad makes sure all the maintenance to the bows is done. Mom ensures everything that is needed is packed, whether it is for a shooting competition or just a couple hours of practice.
"For us as a family, it's very important for us to stay together. The people we shoot with have also become a family unit (to us) as well," Tracy said.
"We have great friendships from shooting over at Thunder Ridge," she added.
Along with those friends, the family has acquired tips and skills from the staff.
"A lot of people come here because they see the Lunger family come in and shoot," Wido said. "You don't normally see that many people get involved (in a family).
"Mike and Tracy do a great job of balancing everything. It's a good place and they bring a lot of people into the shop," he said.
Wido said archery doesn't have to be all about competition all the time, and the Lungers show that.
"You have five people coming in to have a good time," he said.
Thunder Ridge welcomes all ages to come and shoot.
"We are trying to get as many people involved in the sport as we can," he said.
The right time
"It gets them away from the TV and the computers," Michael said, adding that that is important to him and his wife.
Since Emalee's championship and as the family gets more and more involved in the sport, it has become important to promote it, he said.
"I get asked questions and try to promote the sport and keep it going," he said.
Michael said since the kids have gotten involved with archery, the focus and concentration it takes for the sport even has carried over to everyday life, such as school for instance.
Emalee hasn't taken the bow out to hunt yet. Dad said it's not time.
"There is a lot more to hunting with a bow than there is a with a rifle," he said. "It's totally different. I have lost a few deer and have been sick over it. It is not fun when it happens."
He said he would like to see Emalee get more time behind the strings before heading out to the woods.
"They (the kids) are pretty good nerve-wise. They don't let a lot of things rattle them," he said. But, "I don't want to turn them loose with a broadhead before they are ready."
