As you readers know Patrick just wrote a review of the new CMMG Mutant pistol. The other models which include the SBR with a 10 inch barrel as well as a California Compliant model. This is sure good news for those living in California. Heaven only knows what hoops they had to jump through to accomplish that!
I have been working with CMMG and their marketing manager over the last month or more to review both the pistol and California model and release these reviews at the same time. We had a glitch and were unable to get the California model in time for Tom R. to review it before the announcement.
The good news is we have a California Compliant model on the way which we’ll review and post as soon as possible. We are also working on bringing you a review of the SBR Mutant. I’m really looking forward to getting my hands on the SBR!
Now let me share the press release from CMMG which provides further details on each gun.
CMMG EXPANDS THE MK47 MUTANT LINE
CMMG’s Mk47 MUTANT has been the most talked-about rifle of 2015. Built around the 7.62x39mm caliber, the MUTANT features a shortened AR-10-sized bolt carrier group that is paired with a unique upper and lower receiver to minimize weight and increase ergonomics. One of the primary benefits of the Mk47 design is its ability to accept existing AK magazines. After thorough review and testing by the foremost rifle experts in the industry, the Mk47 MUTANT has earned a solid reputation as the ultimate mid-sized AR rifle.
Today, CMMG has announced the addition of an AR pistol and a short-barreled rifle (See NFA Regulations) version of the MUTANT, as well as the availability of California compliant versions of the three original MUTANT rifles (Mk47 T, Mk47 AKM and Mk47 AKM2).
The new Mk47 K Pistol and Mk47 K SBR utilize many of the same features as the full-sized rifles, including the ability to accept AK magazines and drums, a shortened AR-10-sized bolt and CMMG’s SV Brake. Each firearm has a CMMG single stage trigger, a 10-inch medium taper barrel and a CMMG RKM9 KeyMod™ hand guard.

CMMG has also added additional models of its original Mk47 line-up that will comply with California’s 10-round magazine capacity and bullet-button standards.
