Talked to kodiak today and they said its in production right now
But do not have a release date yet.

I think its so awesome that this is a Canadian built rifle, non- restricted, some what cheap
And utilizes AK mags in a AR platform rifle. The 7.62 AR mags are so ####
In my opinion. The only thing close to this was the CMMG mutant that was restricted and now
Banned or the ACR AK lower that was never actually released.

I was really wanting a m10x but now im sure ill be waiting for this

Who else is extremely excited about the release of this?
 
"The only"? What about MGI Hydra and other guns?
The only advantage AK mags have is reliable feeding in case of high capacity, which is verboten by our wise overlords, pardon me for sinful thoughts...
Ok, one also can add always positive locking of "rock and lock " system, but that is quickly negated by more precision required to put a mag in correct initial position.

Anyway I acknowledge the need and demand for modern guns for AK mags, though WK is not something I would consider buying, given their poor reviews.
 
Never mind the AK mags I want the 7.62 bolt for a Grendel build.


On second thought a utility rifle with AK mags would be good!

I forgot about the hydra and that is such a cool rifle, but there's really not alot of other rifles like that, even the ARAK-15
takes AR mags and is chambered in 223./5.56
Also, they are are restricted which puts me off.

Reliable feeding is the one advantage that I would care about considering the alternative
also, the advantage that the AK mag is so heavily produced and available.

I didn't really know about the poor reviews, I did some reading about it and there is quite a bit
Of negative reviews. Good reviews to though. Apparently the WS-MCR is a superior build
 
Bear in mind that these rifles might also be getting sold outside of Canada.

Being chambered in 7.62x39 and using AK magazines would be a huge selling point in some countries.
 
Can someone please confirm my faulty memory, but I thought I read somewhere that the lower from a WK will fit a MCR upper, other then it not having the cross-stabilization pin. If my memory is accurate, the WK AK-mag compatible lower should work with the 7.62x39 mm MCR upper.
 
There are legal 10 round XCR mags in 7.62x39. There are also WK180C uppers in 7.62x39.
AK mags are 5 round max.

I have a CMMG Mk47 Mutant. The WK181C looks like a great idea.
 
This would be a great option for AK mag users. However goes the WK180C platform perform well with the 7.62x39? I’m only asking this given the known breakages of parts in 5.56 at the 1000 round mark.
