Well, sure, you CAN use 7.62x39 in a DMR-purposed rifle.... doesn't mean it's a good idea!!
Back on topic... when are we going to see the freaking WK181's??

Yea, I'm getting antsy too.
I'm guessing they are focusing on the wk180 moreso at the moment but I'm hoping they can start rolling out the 181s relatively soon. Would be nice to have one for summer!
Also the notion that x39 can't be used for a "dmr" is internet drivel. They are more than good enough to take down medium game inside 500m if the shooter is skilled and practiced. Past that you would want something more ballistically capable.

Never said you can't.... just that there are MUCH better options.
You hit the proverbial nail on the head......

As much as I would love to tell you that we can produce a couple thousand more WK180Cs in the next week and also put this into production and produce a couple thousand, I do not see it happening.

I'm sure Wolverine can elaborate, but I imagine the WK181-C is on hold until Kodiak catches up on Wolverine's pre-order backlog for the WK180-C, and until they finish replacing any recalled bolt control groups that need it. I suspect they will give a brief notice on starting the WK181-C production, but do no pre-orders. They may give first dibs to those who pre-ordered the 180 buying a 181 as they come in, but that would be up to Wolverine.

It would be A good Idea if they ad a bolt hold open like the 10/22. Because it won't have last round hold open.

As per one of the first few comments, they are not going to start selling a new type of rifle while orders for the first still have a long waiting list. Simples.

Question for Wolverine: is R&D complete? Do you have a final prototype? What is the reliability with XCR mags?
