About
What it is, and why it matters
The CMMG Dissent Mk47 brings 7.62x39mm and AK-magazine compatibility to CMMG's bufferless Compact Action platform. Combining the AK-pattern magazine well and chambering of the original Mk47 with the buffer-tube-free Dissent operating system, the Mk47 uses PowerBolt Technology - a .308-sized bolt and shortened carrier - cycled by dual guide rods and springs in the upper receiver rather than a conventional buffer. This allows the rifle to wear a true side-folding stock with adjustable length of pull and cheek riser while feeding the hard-hitting 7.62x39 round from standard AK magazines. Offered in 12.5-inch, 14.3-inch pinned-and-welded, and 16.1-inch barrel lengths, the Dissent Mk47 features a forward non-reciprocating charging handle, adjustable gas system, M-LOK free-float handguard with top Picatinny rail, and Cerakote-finished 7075-T6 receivers. The 16.1-inch rifle weighs roughly 7.7 pounds and folds to about 28 inches.
CMMG promoted the Dissent Mk47 with the tagline 'A New Caliber Goes Bufferless,' marking the first time the AK-magazine-fed Mk47 was offered without a traditional buffer tube.
MSRP approximately $2,349. Introduced around 2024, the Dissent Mk47 merges the AK-mag-fed Mk47 receiver with the bufferless Dissent action - notable because the larger 7.62x39 bolt and AK magazine geometry made this one of the more challenging Dissent variants to engineer. Uses PowerBolt Technology with a .308-sized bolt.

- Interface standards, platforms and fit overrides
- The same answers through the API and the MCP server
Requires a signed-in GunSpec account on the Studio plan. The answer is computed per part, so it is not part of the public record.
