Hello CGN,
We're about to start on 1913 stock mounts for our Lynx 180B rifles.
1913 mounts should be ready at the end of batch 3 lowers.
Zhukov mounts are at the anodizers now and will be available with batch 2.

Please feel free to add any additional known in-Canada sources of 1913 stocks; SBI will not have their in-house version ready for some time, as they are currently prioritizing Lynx lower production and Lynx upper development, wisely so
The Zhukov adapter is supposed to be up for sale later this week.

that looks great! now, throw a TNA upper on there. the one with the dust cover
ohhhh, exciting!!! i look forward to that!
Putting a lower together and figured someone might want to see a pic of the external bolt catch release installed. It's not ideal with the gap underneath but not bad either. It won't work if you flip it 180 degrees (well it will but you can't get the upper on) but it's way easier to manipulate with your thumb when its flipped 180. I haven't decided if I'm going to leave in installed or switch to the original style without the release.

my two favourite tools - a vise and a hammer - might be able to sort that issue out in short order ...

I had to 3D print a spacer to fill the gap because it came loose when shooting

Xtreme Gun Shooting Centre has a bolt catch for the MCR is well if you want to try something with a little different form to Kodiak's.
i think you're not getting a lot of uptake to your questions as this is a thread about lowers - no gas blocks here?
however, to sort of answer your question, the 180 clone market has yet to standardize and there is a lot of variation; the wk/mcr is a piston gun with a proprietary and relatively tall gas block (read: only some ar handguards fit) the tna is an improved wk, the rwa is also proprietary but somewhat lower (but takes a proprietary handguard). wk/msc/tna are carbine-length with rifle-length available aftermarket from tna, while the rwa is mid-length. the jard is a di gun like an ar and *i think* takes ar gas blocks. all take ar barrels but make sure your barrel profile is such that it fits 0.75" gas block (except i guess the jard where you can draw from the ar aftermarket). there was an adjustable gas block for the wk/mcr/tna available however it's off the market (but google and making your own adjustable gas block only requires grade 9 shop class - drill a hole, tap the hole, install set screw). there are other uppers enroute but vapourware currently.
