Well that's good review, thank you. I really need to get my hands on one now. Sure beats spending $5k on a CZ

it had a couple failures to feed, (mag related)
1 failure to extract... no idea why.

over 500 , less then 1000?

Just curious what make of ammo are you running thru yours?

Bats888 in his video mentioned his rifle did not like steel cased Russian ammo, but ran cheap Chinese surplus without issues.

For those looking to seal their WK181-C receivers against debris ingress, True North Arms has announced a TNA WK180-C Full-Length Charging Handle for Gen2 & WK181-C, https://www.canadiangunnutz.com/forum/showthread.php/2346967-Stanley-s-Picks-ISSC-MK22-WK-Full-Length-Charging-Handle-Reloading-Powder-Mags.

From their listing, https://truenortharms.com/tna-wk180-c-full-length-charging-handle-for-gen2-wk181-c/?goal=0_5519b99218-ba02338347-438853586&mc_cid=ba02338347&mc_eid=be01ff8f57

True North Arm's WK180-C Full-Length charging handle, is compatible with the Gen2 WK and the WK181-C.

We moved the pivot point back, for a full-length design that covers the entire front slot of your gun. Now your missions in rough terrain won't be interfered with sticks and debris jamming in your gun.

Constructed of aluminum, with a hard-coat mil-spec anodized finish. This is a slimmer design than the OEM one.

These're on sale at SFRC right now! Better furniture than the original ones, and a better price than I paid...

Apparently the new piston system is better but id still wait until I see some actual tests before I buy it given all the issues the 556 piston system had on the gen 2

Still not a fan of the gaping opening in the side of the receiver... (the charging handle slot)
