You know it is a good sign for business when customers are banging at your door to buy your products. As a quick update to our August story on DDI’s U.S. made AK47 rifles, Atlantic Firearms is teasing the first batch due in any day. Although purists may balk at the non-traditional gas block and missing cleaning rod, all signs point to a top-notch DDI rifle with high quality manufacturing processes and parts.
From the DDI Facebook Page:
Folks we are being inundated with requests about our newest rifles. Here’s the latest, we are shipping the fixed stock rifles this week and building more as each day goes on. We are getting ready to build the folders, but they are still being finalized. Patience is required if you’re after one of those units! We should have the last parts approved and ready by the end of the month, but as you know we are NOT going to rush these out the door.
