WK180-C Hastily purchased from local gun shop - seems used

Hey guys,

I think everyone knows what it’s like to look past red flags to get that rifle in your hands and rounds down range. Well I pre-ordered my WK through my local gun store and yesterday they called me saying someone backed out of their order. When I got to the store and looked at the box there was no documentation, the zip ties were cut and it only had ONE magazine (and NOT the HERA brand). When I Asked him about it, he said that’s how the box came from wolverine but threw in a pmag 5/30 off the shelf (which was nice).

However, I also purchased a sling and noticed that the ambidextrous sling ring that should be on the stock wasn’t there? He took one off of another rifle in the store which worked fine. I also noticed that the Charging Handle seems reallly loose (has the magnet).

Sorry for the long post but I just have a feeling that someone returned it because they were waiting for the next shipment due to a defect that I can’t identify on this rifle. Anyone else get rifle with no end plate (part: ar15-8004) and only one mag (no name generic)??

If you would like to e-mail me at John@wolverinesupplies.com with the serial number I will make some discrete enquiries, in any event I can send you a warranty card as we add them here before we ship to anyone.

I received my rifle from a pre-order through Bullseye late last year. No zip-ties were present on the rifle, and as stated in the thread the rifle does not ship with its manual.

The charging handle IS loose. Many users have complained about this, especially myself, and have their fingers crossed that a manufacturer like RWA will come up with an aftermarket solution like they did for a drop-in bolt release.

My rifle also did not come with an ambi sling plate, but did come with a knock-off Magpul CTR which features ambi QD sockets.

Your rifle should definitely have come with 2 hera mags though...that's about all that raises an eyebrow here.
