Sure, they\u2019ve always been a cool concept, but one that was so expensive compared to running cheap 7.62\u00d739 ammo and cheap surplus magazines that only collectors and guys with stocks of 5.56 ammo ever bought them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On top of that, early guns weren\u2019t very reliable\u2026especially compared to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/gun-review-arsenal-ak-47-sgl-21-rifle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">7.62 guns<\/a>, plus most of the options available at the time were very expensive overall, namely Arsenal and Beryl clones. Sure, the WASR-3 existed, but it, like all early WASR rifles, was seen as crude with spotty quality in terms of QA. It made me really wish there were more options, especially now with WASR-3 rifles fetching over a grande.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So when <a href=\"https:\/\/atlanticfirearms.com\/wbp-556sr-jack-rifle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Atlantic Firearms<\/a> began importing Jack 556SR rifles from WBP, I got very excited\u2026until I began reading reports of middling accuracy. Some shooters were reporting 8 MOA guns with any ammo. Even for an AK that\u2019s entirely unacceptable. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These new batches of rifles, though, are said to have fixed the issue by replacing the RADOM barrels with in-house built, nitride-treated WBP barrels. But is this merely lipstick on a pig, or have the Polish engineers at WBP delivered the 5.56mm AK we\u2019ve always wanted? Let\u2019s take a closer look at the new 5.56 Jack rifles and find out.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_543298\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-543298\" style=\"width: 1955px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-543298 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-03.jpg\" alt=\"WBP JACK 556 AK Dirt Road Fall\" width=\"1955\" height=\"1304\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-03.jpg 1955w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-03-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-03-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-03-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-03-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-03-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-03-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-03-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-03-1920x1281.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-03-630x420.jpg 630w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-03-560x374.jpg 560w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1955px) 100vw, 1955px\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-543298\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Although chambered in a NATO caliber, the rifle is 100% AKM, with multiple components being interchangeable with the 7.62x39mm classic rifle. (Jim Grant for TTAG)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><b>WBP Jack 556SR Features<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the uninitiated, the Jack series of rifles from WBP are simply AKM-pattern semi-automatic carbines chambered in 7.62\u00d739, 5.56, and 5.45. As AKs, it should come as no surprise that they function via long-stroke piston-driven action.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This has the upside of being very robust and reliable with the downside of being both heavy and having a little more felt recoil than short-stroke or direct impingement rifles since the piston is attached to the carrier. That translates into a heavy mass reciprocating during the firing process and thus more felt recoil.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ammunition for this and all TTAG reviews is sponsored by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammunitiontogo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ammo To Go<\/a>.

Speaking of which, the new Jack ships with a single, Polish-made polymer 30-round magazine in the box. The mag lacks steel reinforcements, but in my testing it\u2019s been thus far good to go. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want steel reinforcements in your 5.56 AK magazines, there are several options available, both affordable, like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.avantlink.com\/click.php?tt=cl&amp;merchant_id=c57f7b35-5796-4cf2-9f7e-d6ef5a436261&amp;website_id=4e8a62e5-c9f2-4169-947d-06856fc118da&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fgunmagwarehouse.com%2Fcatalogsearch%2Fresult%2F%3Fq%3Dak%25205.56\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AC unity<\/a> mags, and pricy, like the <a href=\"https:\/\/gunmagwarehouse.com\/catalogsearch\/result\/?q=ak%205.56\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arsenal waffle-pattern circle ten<\/a> mags.

(Jim Grant for TTAG)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One unique thing about this rifle over other 74-based guns, is that it utilizes a 45-degree gas block instead of a 90-degree one. I\u2019m not sure why WBP chose this, but this could eventually lead to increased recoil as the gas port naturally opens up over time. But if you\u2019re worried that means the Jack will suddenly happen to recoil like crazy, don\u2019t worry. This port takes thousands and thousands of rounds to open up. And even then, we\u2019re talking about maybe a 5% increase in felt recoil.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Further back, the receiver of the Jack features an engraved Polish eagle coat of arms and a standard rear sight notch adjustable for elevation with settings ranging from point blank to 800 meters.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_543319\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-543319\" style=\"width: 2560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-543319 size-full\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"WBP Jack 556 Optics Rail\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1703\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-700x466.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-2048x1363.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-696x463.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-1068x711.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-1920x1277.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-631x420.jpg 631w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-560x373.jpg 560w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-scaled.jpg\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-543319 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"WBP Jack 556 Optics Rail\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1703\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-700x466.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-2048x1363.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-696x463.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-1068x711.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-1920x1277.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-631x420.jpg 631w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/WBP-JACK-556-06-560x373.jpg 560w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-543319\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Iron sights not your thing?
