So, I have a wk180c on the way, it has the threaded bcg, could it still be affected or is thus for magnet only?

Are they going to recall the rifles whose bolts and charging handles eat the upper receivers?
Guns only have two natural enemies; politicians and rust.
No they are not. Those are up to you to get the new threaded bolt, wait for a different fix or send it back for inspection. If on the recall list you’ll get a new threaded bolt. If it’s not then you’ll get yours back. At that time of you want the threaded bolt it’ll be an upgrade
Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes!
You folks will post an update when the threaded bolt handle upgrade becomes an option?
My rifle is from the first batch (sn 3xx), so it's not on this recall

Thank you, I will check when I recieve the rifle.
I get a real kick out of the naysayers hammering the WK180Cs.
It is a new sub 1200.00 rifle with a few teething problems that Kodiak is covering, 20.00 shipping who cares, that is like two burger meals....
Two of my buddys just had MAJOR XCR bolt carrier failures, and they spent over 2400.00 on their rifles!
So let's give Kodiak some support here, not hearing people going after Robinson Arms here........
I just wanna share the customer service i have received from Kodiak. I had the BCG fail on me prior to the recall, I actually have a thread on the black gun forum. They sent me a replacement within 4 days. The replacement happened before the recall was sent out one of the nitrated BCGs which failed again. I sent an email yesterday morning and got this back this morning May 7th.
Hi Scott,
You have our sincere apologies. We thought that your original one was a fluke, but there were six others that came in with the same problem. As a result, we initiated a voluntary recall for the bolt carrier last Wednesday (see attached.) We have eliminated nitriding from our heat-treatment process and this should not be an issue in the future. You will able to see that your bolt carrier is of new stock by the inspection mark on it. I will Xpresspost you a replacement; you should expect it by Friday. Again, our apologies.
