The Century Arms BFT556 Core is an American-made AK-style semi-automatic rifle chambered in 5.56×45mm. Its 16.25" chrome-lined 4150 chrome-moly steel barrel features a 1:7" twist rate, threaded muzzle, and AK-74-style muzzle brake.
The rifle is built around a bulged and forged 4140 steel front trunnion and a reinforced 1.5mm stamped-steel receiver. A manganese-phosphate finish provides corrosion and wear resistance, while the RAK-1 enhanced trigger delivers smooth, consistent operation.
Russian Red hardwood furniture gives the rifle a distinctive appearance, while the US Palm pistol grip, adjustable iron sights, optics-ready side mount, and bolt-hold-open selector provide practical functionality. It includes (1) 30-round US Palm magazine.
