Century Arms imports the Micro Draco from Romania: an AK-pattern pistol in 7.62x39mm with a 6.25-inch barrel, an anodized finish and a Russian Red wood handguard. A Picatinny rail mounts at the rear of the receiver for an optic, the muzzle is threaded 14x1 left hand, and one 30-round magazine comes in the box. The supplier lists it as new, and the listing photo is a stock image rather than the exact gun you will receive.

This is the smallest gun in the Draco line, a short pistol that fires a rifle cartridge, and it sells to South Carolina buyers who want a compact 7.62x39 for the range or the house. The state keeps the purchase straightforward: no permit to purchase, no registry and no state waiting period. Show photo ID at a licensed dealer, fill out Form 4473, and the dealer runs NICS unless you present a current state concealed weapons permit, which many dealers accept in its place.
