Interesting, thanks for sharing. Sounds like a Chinese copy of the Russian AK-12s similar to how the SKS is a knock off of the AK-47s. Might be decent, but personally my experience is the original Russian arms are superior, albeit at a higher cost. YMMV.
I think thenkey here is that these guns are available even in this market because so few know about them. And 439 is the price of a half dozen 12 round mags.
There was a similar knock off product called the Catamount Fury a few years ago, which offered a great entry price point but appears to be discontinued now. Will be interesting to see what happens with the Lynx, thanks again for mentioning it,
The SKS preceded the AK-47, and is in no way a knock-off.
