The Polish are the 5.56 AK masters absolutely no excuse. Steel ammo is easier to extract because it doesn’t expand as much as brass fix your extractor WBP.
Yeah that is probably why, I shoot wolf .223, and lake city surplus ammo it seems polish 5.56 AKs like hotter pressure loads, and steel cased .223, I recommend buying lake city surplus m193, lake city tracers, lake city m855 and m855a1 it'll like that stuff better just saying
I have the pioneer arms forged series 5.56 ak, and I can say it likes fb Radom Beryl mags and circle 10 mags, it doesn't seem to like any other mags, but for ammo it likes lake city 5.56 ammo that Winchester sells, and that you can get from kosher surplus, or anywhere else, also likes steel cased ammo, it'll kick out spent casings from lake city stuff hard, because it's a lot hotter pressure load than commercial stuff.
Could be that WBP trigger. My mini Jack 556, when you pull the trigger back, sometimes it would somehow catch the carrier and seize it up. I threw an old PSA trigger in it and that seemed to fix it.
It looks like a rough chamber issue. I had the same issue with my Galil kit build until I polished out the chamber. Get a flex hone in .223, dip it in oil, attach it to an electric drill, go back and forth in the chamber for about a minute, clean the barrel and it should hopefully fix it.
The issue is likely the ejector fin has been trimmed to short. Take the top off, and when the bolt slides past the ejector fin is there a lot of space there? It should have almost no space. The last AK i built, I had very similar issue, I had filed down the fin to much. I had to add a couple small welds to the fin to build it back up and file it again to fit. Then the problem went away. It was a WBP Lynx parts kit.
@@Midwest__Savage ahh rewatching the video youre issue is that its not even extracting the case out of the chamber correct? If that's the case then it could be your extractor claw and/or spring, you could try a replacement one from carolina supply for like 25 bucks. Sucks that they didnt fix it, sometimes you just have to try to fix it yourself. Maybe they can just send you a whole new one lol.
Sorry I steered you away....But I also would feel like an ass if I suggested this to someone and they had same issues.... But thanks for the view n comment my dude!
Don't let me keep ya from getting one....Only heard of a small handful of these having this issue......Let ya in on a secret....Think I may have fixed it..Don't wanna get ahead of myself but it's looking promising
Well if not an extractor issue the only other possibilities I can think of his old is dragging on the ammo in the magazine or you need to polish the shit out of The chamber
There are no steel mags that fit the polish style guns. Zastava makes steel m85 mags, but they are not compatible Romy weiger mags won't work. You caaaaaaan get old school galil mags to work, but they require a shit ton of fitment issues
Said they smoothed out some stuff around chamber that was scraping rounds when loading....Had it for a while and said they shot 50 rnds and it was good....To be fair I wasn't able to get 50 when I first got it...So it is "better" than it was but not 100% fixed.
@@Midwest__Savage Mishaco on UA-cam had the same issues on a WASR3 (556). So what was the fix? The gunsmith polish the chamber or just a touch with the chamber reamer? Got one on order after watching your 556 AK video.
@@kygent508 I swapped to a BD2 break & I found that any kind of steel mags wouldn’t fit. I bought a few Bulgarian circle 10 mags and even though they are a bit pricy they are well worth it.
Have you had any problems with the 7.62 version of the jack. I was looking into getting an akm . I really need 1 solid choice I really like the wbp jack and its available now. Was looking at arsenal also. What's you thoughts?
I have a WBP in 762...it's nice build a great rifle but I like my Arsenals better...Not saying it's a bad choice...I have more videos on different rifles. Just do research and choose what's best for you,DONT FORGET TO BUY LOTS OF AMMO!!
@@Midwest__Savage yes sir!! 🏴☠️ I really need to post some videos, but I’m just so busy as it is, and I’m one of those kind of guys that if I do something it’s a full commitment or nothing! 🤣
I live in a dumb state MD and we can only have the beryl and PTR rifle in 7.62 . I don’t have enough money to donate to State police to get a petition for one approved
When he said it doesn’t like the wbp mags I was getting extremely frustrated with this gun that isn’t even mine
Glad its working it is nice to have a 5.56 AK for SHTF!

You do a round of both 8 n 400 grit?? Never used one but after looking these up n reading reviews I'm feeling like this a a good thing to do.
@@Midwest__Savage nope. Just 800.
@@Gun_Dae thanks my guy...Appreciate ya.🙏
BRO.....got the flex hone...gave it the ol IN OUT,IN OUT....been working like a champ so far....THANK YOU!!!
@@Midwest__Savage glad to hear it. Looking forward to the update video.
They should send out a brand new one to you at this point. I know I'd be pissed.
beat your wife pissed!
I had a issue just like this with a Sar galil I lapped the shit out of the chamber with fliz, seems to have done the trick

The fin caused it to not extract the casings?? Or not EJECT them?

Damn man I was praying for it to work
So was I my dude.I wanted it to work in the works way.
Ive been waiting to get one as well, but after watching this i think ill wait for the kr101
Sorry I steered you away....But I also would feel like an ass if I suggested this to someone and they had same issues....
But thanks for the view n comment my dude!
@@Midwest__Savage totally agree with u, hopefully u get it fixed and thx for the video & all the updates
yeah in a crazy way id say try a new trigger.or maybe 4 peace flash hider
Just ordered one hoping for the best.
This really sucks I wanted to pick one up but probably not now
Don't let me keep ya from getting one....Only heard of a small handful of these having this issue......Let ya in on a secret....Think I may have fixed it..Don't wanna get ahead of myself but it's looking promising
At this point man just send it off to a gunsmith

Don't let out the secret. 🤣
@@Midwest__Savage The scratches on the casings was the giveaway
@@Scott079 yeah...Just wish I thought of that months ago 🤣
have you used any steel mags? I feel like it don't like those poly mags your using.
I only have steel Zastava mags and they a bit too thick to fit in magwell
@@Midwest__Savage looks like you got a lemon. That's unfortunate. Just ask for your money back and send it.

@@Midwest__Savage interesting how they didn’t switch out the extractor. Try to give that a try? See if that maybe fixes it. Shouldn’t be too hard.
@@Midwest__Savage any updates bub
@@DREKOWICK69 oh yeah....she's all good now..just posted video yesterdat
@@Midwest__Savage shit, I will go and watch it. thanks
Thanks, was going to spend on 762 and now im not!
5.56 is the new hotness of AKs....Editing video of FB Beryl now...should be out tomorrow 11am. 👍
What mags are using thats malfunctioning? Maybe not use those. Shoot another 500 rounds with the mags that worked, that will tell you something.
All fixed now...rough chamber issues

What grain ammo you running …you might try some prizi 62 grain or 55 grain ..wolf is kinda the bottom bitch of ammo
Send it back and ask for another one. That won't take 2 months for sure...
None in stock...Been out since January
Think you just got a lemon. Mine has over 3k rounds through it with not one malfunction. Steel, and brass. Fmj,sp,hp it eats it all
Naw...it's all good now..No hiccups 🤞
Just ordered one did you find any mags it did not like did you change the brake?
@@kygent508 I swapped to a BD2 break & I found that any kind of steel mags wouldn’t fit. I bought a few Bulgarian circle 10 mags and even though they are a bit pricy they are well worth it.

@@Midwest__Savage thanks its a tuff decision but I appreciate the feedback and great content keep up the great work
@@SugarweaselDad23 thanks my dude.
is it happening with a specific mag? or does it happen randomly?
Different mags,Different ammo.
this may sound crazy but i think its the rigger. now you just need a UL ALG trigger and boom or maybe polsh the trigger it came with
That was a thought to swap it out...I have a cpl ALG just sitting around..we shall see in part 4..lol
556 AK's are the best but its so weird to me how not one of them has ever be 100% reliable like 545 or 762 AKs. Not sure what the problem is
Once they have been in production for over 60 years hopefully the kinks will be ironed out..lol
I think the amount of case taper 7.62x39 has a lot to do with the reliability.
@@Wolf_Avery for sure
Wasar and sam7 are the only AK’S I got and work all the time with no cleaning about 700+ on them each
I absolutely LOVE my Sam7 nothing like it
