Century Arms L1a1 Serial Numbers
CENTURY L1A1, FAL RECEIVER CODES i have been using century receivers for many years and finding out information on a particular receiver is difficult at best. I have collected some information on the receivers and it may or may not be correct. This is not going to be in any order, it is just information. If anyone has addition information please post it. This thread is not 'I repeat it is not for the bashing or merits of the Century receiver' it is only to gather information. If you feel the need to do some bashing, then feel free to start your own thread.
If it stamped 'made in canada' then it is most likely an Imbel receiver, but there were a few Argentine (FMAP) receivers used (5 digit serial number ). Hesse/Vulcan made some receivers for Century and they are usually stamped with Hesse on them, altho a few were not stamped. Type 3 imbel also made some receivers that were stamped Imbel, but without the gear logo on them.
Type 3 Imbel made some receivers with the gear logo on them. Type 3 the early L1A1 receivers were Imbel metric receivers, but cut for the folding charging handle and had the unibrow cut. Type 3 NC on the serial number are made by North Country Machine in Vermont. I have only seen metric receivers, type 3.
But, i read there are some inch made, but i don't know for sure. ICL on the serial number are early Dan Coonan.

They are type 1 CA on the serial number are ( i forgot i will add this information when i remember it.) they were metric receivers. Type 3 CI on the serial number are thought to be imbel.

The Century Arms G-1 is a copy of the Fn-Fal that uses surplus parts from metric versions as well as American made parts to comply with US gun laws. Century makes two types of the G-1. The only difference between the two is the buttstock. This particular example has the M-249 type stock.
The stock is heavier than the standard and has a foldup wire shoulder support. This wire support was not used in this review.

Of course we all know what happened the M-14 won and was adopted by the United States military. After the Korean War they adopted the M-14 as did various other countries.
