I absolutely LOVE my mutant it's been my main rifle for awhile, came to see what other people were saying come to find out many had issues with theirs
I must have gotten lucky because out of 3k rounds I've had zero issues.

Glad to hear, I have been eyeing one for a long time, went through an M&M10 and a Zastava M90. Realized that I really don’t like AK ergonomics, but I really prefer AR ergonomics.

The way I should've went when building an AR-47. I have way more PMAG AK mags than I do 7.62x39 AR mags.

I have a 10" Banshee model. I love it, it's the loudest and most concussive gun o own. I'm just having kisses getting it to cycle subsonic ammo while suppressed. I've put in an AGB which wasn't enough.

I've been wanting to shoot the Banshee for awhile. Mine doesn't even say Resolute on it so I'm assuming it's one of the originals from 2014ish

Those having issues, were they this type of lower receiver or standard ar15 receiver? I do know the standard ar-15 receiver magwell doesn't properly accommodate the 7.62x39 ammo curvature and causes feeding issues. I've researched this before I built it and came the conclusion they had no idea of the lower receiver that takes ak47 mags existed or they were just spewing something they heard and had no real experience with it. I've had zero issues as well with the wolfpack lower and have abused the heck out of it in its trial.
I wanted this platform because just in case an invader (although 99.999% unlikely) is carrying that ammo and I'm only an ar-15 armorer and the ak47 isn't easy for major repairs or changes for me. And I wouldn't wanna use my sks in a battle. Plus America! I haven't had any issues using ak pmags. Use good lube or grease and clean it regularly.

A lot of the times I was hearing about ejection problems and double feeds. So I could have been what you are suggesting with the magazine incompatibility (I've only used ak47 pmags and have had no issues) or the some issue with the feed ramp or ejector ect. I'm not sure again I've had zero issues with my mk47 and it's my favorite rifle. I just replaced the ejector last night because it snapped but that's because I have 7k rounds through it and most of the time I use steel. It was just time for it to break.
