AK47 Pistol Lynx Polish Classic WBP
mounting forward optics. You also will receive a factory pre-fitted classic wood laminate hand guard set should you choose to go for the classic look, or you can mix the two for the tactical classic look.

    Do you know if the bolt and carrier are also forged?

      Brian, I cant say for sure, but I just got one and the parts look and feel forged to me. They are certainly milled. After 200 rounds, admittedly not much, there is no deformation anywhere. They seem to be of the same quality of an Arsenal for instance. I would also say the build quality is very high, for instance the windage on the front sight post was dead on out of the box. I will try to update on this post/thread if people are interested, but at this point I would bet that these parts are going to last.

        I want one too. They are supposed to be super strong & rare. How’s the accuracy?

          The rifle is very accurate. I dont have an MOA to give you, but it was grouping about as tight as my 74’s and 5.56 AKs upon zeroing. I plan on running it in competition when I get a chance.

          Parts update:

          About 700 rounds or so in and everything looks really good. The paint on the bolt is wearing off, as expected, but no deformation. The tail of the bolt carrier hasnt deformed at all, and I am using a G2 trigger. So far so good!

    From the pics on Atlantic Firearms’s site the carrier and bolt look to be forged with the correct inspection stamps

    If the bolt and carrier are properly forged , count me in ! …. might be better to wait and see what the long guns
    look like , as the pistols may not be very practical for a SHTF gun .
    Any upgrade would be welcome after owning that C39V2 turd that I got rid of !

      Hey Dan the arsenal 107cr is back in stock. I own lots of ak rifles and its my favorite. Very light and still easy to hit steel out to at least 300 meters. The price tag hurts a little but I think its worth it.

    Looks like there is now a new WBP milled receiver rifle that takes standard furniture.

    Hey Rob have seen the new James River Armory polish AK with a Radom receiver and barrel? At $499 I’m wondering if they would pass your 5000rd test. Thanks for all you do Rob.

      They aren’t importing any new Mak rifles…they are collectibles now. Here is my opinion: get one while you can…and yes, their prices will continue to climb.

    Hey Rob just ordered a Lynx from Atlantic and it should be at my FFL tomorrow. I want to do this up right and not have to go through a bunch of parts that do not work. So I have a few questions.

    I have heard good and bad about the ALG trigger and was wondering what your thoughts on them were. As opposed to the Tapco for instance. I have heard people have had to modify the ALG to more like the Tapco. I even saw you had to mod the Tapco in one AK. Maybe you should do a video on these triggers and how to make all of them work.

    I am going to install a US Machine gun universal adapter to mount a Shockwave brace. Not yet sure about a muzzle device, I’m thinking just a plain A2 flash hider or should I go with a Krink sort of device, Midwest industries makes a nice inexpensive can. My experience with a 10″ barrel in 762×39 is that an A2 works OK. The other type adds weight and length. The Midwest version is lightweight. Should I get the Krink style, CNC machine makes a good one that’s nickle plated inside. Only the real Krink is chrome plated.

    Not sure on a rail or handguard yet. I see Magpul AKM handguards in OD Green are discontinued for some reason. So are the Midwest rails in FDE and ODG.

    How are the Arsenal, Handguard with Stainless Steel Heat Shield I see Midway has in ODG? More money than the Magpul but they look good and much more authentic. Do they fit?

    Last will be a RS Regulate red dot mount and a Holosun like the Eotech sights. I don’t like the weight and how they work on top of the piston tube.

    Any input would be appreciated.

      RS Regulate is better solution in my eyes then anything which would allow optic to be mounted up front – that’s my take on this.
      I haven’t used Arsenal HG, but it looks like a decent product. I haven’t heard any complains about it at all…

    Being of Polish Heritage and loving the AK47, I had to buy a Polish Lynx.
    I Love it already!
    I was shocked, to have gotten Serial Number 1, from Atlantic!

        Quality is Top Notch!
        Just took it shooting, flawless and hitting the 200 yard steel plate, every shot, with iron sights.
        Took it to my local gun shop, everyone was Impressed.
        I know of 6 more that were ordered, after they saw mine!

    The”LYNX” & the “HELL PUP” aren’t the same quality. The Truuion on the Hell Pup is cast & the Lynx”s is forged ,correct ?

      It’s been clarified, that the Lynx has a Forged trunion, carrier and bolt!

    Is the Hell Pup trunnion basically the same as a RAS-47 ? Just because it’s Polish shouldn’t make a difference if they were also putting out a compromised product .

    Hey Rob, I called Classic about their JRA/Pioneer offering for $499 and asked about the spec on the front trunnion, after waiting a good 10 minutes for an answer they finally came back with, Forged. I wasn’t as concerned about the bolt carrier and bolt as I have a few sets from WBP in parts bins so, I didn’t ask. Would be a new low in the industry to deceive a customer with false information on something so critical, with a possibility of catastrophic failure. Have you or anyone else got any verification on this particular rifle? Seems JRA would be really sticking it’s neck out to literally put their seal of approval on the rifle otherwise.
    Thanks
