Complete 7.62x39 Uppers for 180 Platforms

[Iceman18]

Lol. These rifles are not quality, I know three guys who’ve had major failures on their rifles. Wait for the brownells 180.

I recall when a complete rifle was supposed to be under a grand.

I remember when $1000 was worth more than it is today.

And it'll be worth less than it is today so soon I won't have any trouble remembering how much (how little) it's worth today.

is a 1:8 twist rate normal for 7.62x39? I was thinking it was more like 1:10 for 7.62x39, somebody school me

$1000 for the upper or $1200 for the complete rifle... Hmm I think I would rather just have another rifle.

I share this view.
What is the point of buying upper for 1k when the full rifle costs around 1300?

sorry $1299 for the Magpul edition , $1199 for the basic version . Tillsonburg gun shop

Not any more, unfortunately.

and an SKS was $99. In the US people are paying $300 for 500 rounds of 9mm.... so....

So this comes with the bolt, bolt carrier, guide rods and springs? Nothing at all is needed to put this on a WK180-C lower?

It drops straight on, no extra parts required. The only thing you would want to do is un-install the rear takedown pin.

Does it work on a wk 180c

Yes

would you happen to know if it might work with a nodak spud lower?

Yes.

There are no 7.62x39 MCR complete rifles available on the market right now

Will this only fit the wsmcr? Or will it fit a nodak spud and wk180?

They will fit MOST platforms unless something oddball was done to them.

I recall when a complete rifle was supposed to be under a grand.

The MCR in 7.62x39 was never once quoted for under a grand. Previous projects in 5.56mm once were and were delivered as such. Times change and so do prices unfortunately!

Lol. These rifles are not quality, I know three guys who’ve had major failures on their rifles.

So you yourself don't have one but know a guy who does currently own a WS-MCR rifle? What were these major problems they had? Did they contact anyone to resolve them?
Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but unless you are going to back it up it is not a valid one..

The wk-180 originally sold for $1099. That is not the same rifle.

[Mredward]

Approximately when will you be selling complete compatible lowers?

1:8 stablizes some heavier bullets like subsonic load in 200 grain range. IMO it's too fast for the 123 grain but given the common ammo being shot in this caliber it probably does not matter that much.

I'm guessing the real reason they went with 1:8 is because they got a good deal on the barrel.

I would be curious to hear about the accuracy report on this upper from Wolverine. Maybe try different types of ammo including surplus, commercial (Barnaul), and premium commercial (Hornady SST).

Also any chance the 7.62x39 bolt is up for sale separately?

They make 300 win mags with 1:8 these days, over stabilization is not really a big deal, too high of RPM would be the only concern but at 1:8 you would have to be well over 3000 FPS. I’d say they nailed it with the twist rate.
