Century Arms continues to push the boundaries of the AK platform by collaborating with John Sharps of Sharps Bros on a new milled receiver AK47, the MB47. The MB47 is the latest in Century Arms’ line up of the US made AK47 platform!
The MB47 features a case-hardened billet 4140 milled receiver with manganese phosphate finish and optic ready side mount. It is chambered in 7.62×39 and ships with a US Palm 30rd magazine. The MB47 is outfitted with premium components, to include the all-new US Palm free float MLOK handguard, Ultimak gas tube rail, RAK-1 Enhanced Flat Trigger, Century Arms US chevron compensator that is installed on a 5/8×24 threaded fluted and chrome lined 16.25” barrel, and Magpul DT carbine stock w/ AR15 mil-spec buffer tube.
“When it came to next steps for Sharps Bros, we wanted to partner with Century who we saw as someone who had a generational amount of experience,” said John Sharps of Sharps Bros. “So it was a perfect collaboration opportunity.” Through this collaboration, the MB47 shows how Generation Meets Innovation!
The MB47 will begin shipping to customers October 1st, 2024. For more information on the MB47, please visit https://www.centuryarms.com/mb47

I’m rooting for Century but damn they’ve blown how many chances at redemption now?
Wasn’t Century’s last milled AKs complete garbage? Now they’re doing this Sharps gimmick. If you pay $1700 for a US made AK you honestly deserve what is going to inevitably happen.
