Just Got It NOW!

[Alphabrew]

Got mine last night as well... Would come across as almost new minus the scuffing at the front.

Sweet, looks blue. Most have been parkedrized.

Actually looks parkerized to me, not blued. Look at the second picture.

I like the grips - those look original. I got shitty plastic ones. All in all, I rate this experience right up there with getting my IHC Garand with LMR in June. I'm hoping to take it to the range today - maybe my mood will improve.

Looks park'd to me, too. Other than that, it's a nice one!

Hmm, I put the VT. address that was on the shipping box. Does anyone have their FFL#?

CENTURY ARMS INC (or CENTURY INTERNATIONAL ARMS INC)
236 BRYCE BLVD
FAIRFAX, VT 05454
6-03-011-07-4H-33217
6-03-011-07-6B-00370 respectively

they have 5 licenses listed to that address. I figure the -07 is what they'd ship out on though. You can look the info up on the public ATF website or download a spreadsheet of all FFL's in the country (doesn't include -03's though! which is a good thing).

The address in Florida is an -01 so that doesn't seem right.

Sorry should have been more specific... It's definitely parkarized. It's almost perfect minus the little wear at the front.

Grips are in great shape as well, minus the incredibly long wait it seems to be a great deal

Well, the good news that my Star A/B is a shooter and feeds steel without a hitch.

That's an 8 inch target and two 4 inch targets at 25 feet.

The bad news is that TulAmmo is steel jacketed and Continental almost beat me down for using it (I called and the woman said they only prohibit steel core ...). I guess I'll look in to some copper jacketed stuff and cross my fingers.

The other bad news is that my new Romanian Tok has serious feeding issues - almost like the case is too big for the chamber. Need to figure that out.

For anyone who got a Romanian Tokarev from SOG, I'd be interested to hear how yours functions.

My wife's Rom Tok is a very reliable gun that's a pleasure to shoot.

Oh, on my phone it looked blue. I guess I need to get the iPhone 6!

I have one that should be here by the end of the week but not sure if I will be able to shoot it this weekend or not. Got 200 rds from Wideners on the way as we'll.

Also have the Star B that I missed today and plan to be home for tomorrow!

I ordered a Star B from CIA on the 5th and still not even a ping on the card

You need to call them or you won't ever get your order. Their system doesn't remember your credit card after this long. Same thing happened to me.

Absolutely right….talk to anyone in sales and they'll refer you to Jason. You have to keep calling.

I hope to have a range report for you shortly. From what I found during the Cosmo cleanse, it should run well.

I ordered mine on Friday and I missed the delivery for today so something is certainly up with your order. Call them before they are out of stock.

^^^ This. Jason can make stuff happen.

I was playing around with it last night and believe it's the magazine. Specifically, I believe that the top left flange of the mag - next to the follower - sticks up too high and inserts too deeply into the action and, thus, too tightly under the hammer mechanism housing. For whatever reason, that is causing the round to rub too tightly against the top or side of the slide, as evidenced by the scrapes down the cases. The reason I believe this is that I inserted the "Made in Taiwan" extra magazine that SOG sent me and, although they look the same for the most part, it sits noticeably lower in the action/under the housing than the "factory" one (which isn't matching, by the way). With the aftermarket mag in the pistol, it feeds a lot better but there were still a few hiccups. I haven't tried shooting it with the after-market mag, but at least I can get it to - for the most part - feed. I think I'm going to call SOG and ask them if they will ship me a new pistol.

I would, it sounds like you have a legit issue and if you are unhappy with the additional serial number maybe they can swap pistols for you. After all...

I called SOG, and they said they will gladly exchange for a new Rom Tok (she said that "all matching" does not include mags). Shipping to SOG via USPS is on me; return shipping to me is on them. Kudos to SOG.
