About This Firearm
The CMMG Resolute Mk47 is an AR-pattern semi-automatic 7.62x39mm built for range work and defense behind AR controls. It has an MSRP of $1,949.95. It feeds conventional AK-47 magazines through CMMG's billet Mk47 lower, so AR controls sit over an AK magazine well.
The gas block is adjustable, so the rifle can be set for a suppressor or for the pressure spread 7.62x39mm ammunition arrives in. A ZEROED drop-in trigger, an ambidextrous 60 and 90 degree safety, an ambidextrous charging handle and a pistol grip all come fitted, and the RipStock pulls out to length without a lever. The muzzle is 5/8x24 under a ZEROED brake, which is the American .30-caliber pattern. No sights come on it.
If you're cross-shopping, the Century Arms VSKA has an MSRP of $949.99 and does the same job for half the money on a stamped AK receiver with iron sights. The IWI Galil ACE Gen II has an MSRP of $1,979 with a milled receiver and a reciprocating left-side charging handle. At 33 inches the CMMG is 4.25 inches shorter than the VSKA, and its controls are the ones an AR shooter already knows.

Strengths & Limitations
- CMMG calls the Mk47 a mid-size hybrid that puts heavier internals in a scaled-down form, so it avoids the bulk of the Mk3 AR-10 platform.
- The handguard is CMMG's EML15, with M-LOK at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock.
- The dust cover is CMMG's own polymer AR-15 part, and the charging handle and safety are ambidextrous units from the same ZEROED line.
- The EML15 handguard has no full-length Picatinny section, so a front iron or a rail-mounted accessory needs an M-LOK adapter.
- It feeds AK magazines, so the AR magazines, pouches and loaders an AR shooter already owns are no use on it.
- A 5/8x24 muzzle rules out the AK brakes and flash hiders made for this cartridge, and those are the cheap end of the market.

When was the Mk47 introduced?
CMMG released it in 2014 to put 7.62x39mm behind AR controls.
