Ha! I was just looking for info on the MK47 Dissent 7.62x39 w/ the 16.1" bbl. Just spent an hour scrolling them. I like the fact that the Dissent is bufferless and that (at least the 7.62x39) the lower is AR parts. A true AK is welded together and finding a local gunsmith is difficult to find. All of the reviews I find on the Dissent are mostly positive. I am trying hard to not just pick up the phone and order one. New gun, new caliber, new mags. I like it more and more tho. GL
