CENTURY ARMS WASR Paratrooper Sidefolder | 7.62X39

The Century Arms WASR Paratrooper Sidefolder is an AK-pattern semi-automatic rifle built for shooters who value proven reliability and a compact footprint when the stock is folded. It ships with a fixed wood furniture set and an adjustable rear sight for basic sighting needs. For an optic under $1,000 that pairs well with this platform, consider a Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6×24 for flexible short- to intermediate-range aiming on a 7.62X39 rifle.

Common real-world applications include range training and recreational target shooting; the platform also appeals to collectors and users who want a compact, transportable AK-style rifle for field use.
