I have one. I like it. In the winter when I am in the US and can conceal it under a duster it serves the purpose. Long range Accuracy suffers from the chopped barrel, but heck it's a pistol! It goes bang every time! What more could you could ask for?
The only sexier pistol may be a PPS-43c. That's my other winter sidearm (on my left side). All the above goes for that one too.
The M92 is a regular 1mm non bulged receiver. The M85 in .223/5.56 has the 1.5mm bulged receiver.
They are cool novelty firearms. A single point sling and some forward pressure makes them more stable to shoot. Good platform for a SBR or add an extension for a folder etc.
Own four bulged trunnions rifles myself: Yugo M70 underfolder, Romanian RPK, Yugo M90 223 chrome factory barrel w/ matched serial numbered NoDak receiver and a Mitchell Yugo 308 RPK. Have a virgin bulged trunnion and Nodak collecting dust until I decide what to build.
I am waiting for the RFT top rail to arrive and considering a hi-viz front sight post.
The only thing I've found is that with the polymer magazines (even the tapco mags that it came with) fit a little lose... Meaning there's some play in them when inserted. However the good ole' metal AR magazines fit perfectly. No cycle issues with any mags... Just a little rattling with the polymer.
Atlantic firearms mentions in this thread at arfcom M85NP 5.56 PAP... - Page 1 - AR15.COM that "We are not aware of Century offering the mag well as a separate item."
Different maker, same concept. The first one just fits in the magwell, the second one bolts on in place of the triggerguard and takes AR grips. If ya want the first one it's on backorder, they ship as they are made in the order ya got on the list.
