Overview
The CENT ARMS BFT556 CORE AK rifle is engineered for consistent operational readiness and sustained performance in demanding environments. This platform integrates critical structural enhancements for durability and accuracy, designed to function reliably with all commercially available 5.56NATO ammunition. Its construction prioritizes continuous function under stress, from the front trunnion through to the barrel.
Key Features
Robust Construction
The BFT556 CORE is built around a Bulged and Forged 4140 steel front trunnion, providing enhanced structural integrity at a critical stress point. The receiver is a 1.5mm heat-treated stamped 4130 steel component, delivering a substantial foundation for the rifle’s operational cycle. These material selections and manufacturing processes contribute directly to the platform’s overall resilience.
Optimized Reliability
A carburized 4140 steel bolt is integrated for sustained cycling and reduced wear, mitigating common points of failure in high-volume use. The rifle’s design ensures reliable extraction, feeding, and lock-up under varied operational conditions, maintaining function across diverse ammunition types.
Precision Engineering
Featuring a 16.25-inch chrome-moly 4150 steel barrel, the BFT556 CORE is specified for consistent projectile velocity and accuracy. The barrel material and length are selected to provide a balanced performance profile. The entire rifle is finished with manganese phosphate, offering a durable, corrosion-resistant surface treatment for long-term service.
