Description
The DISSENT MK47 answers a question plenty of folks have asked over the years: why can't one rifle give you AR controls, AK magazines, and a truly compact package? CMMG got there by pairing their bufferless DISSENT operating system with the overbuilt MK47 lower, so this direct impingement gun runs its recoil system inside the receiver instead of a buffer tube. No buffer tube means the side-folding stock collapses flat against the receiver, and the rifle packs down small for the truck, the safe, or a backpack-friendly case. Feed it from the same steel and polymer AK-pattern mags you probably already have stacked on a shelf.
What Makes the DISSENT MK47 Different
The forward-mounted, non-reciprocating charging handle sits right where your support hand lives, so you can run the action without breaking your grip, and it swaps to either side for left-handed use. Ambidextrous controls and CMMG's ZEROED 60/90 degree safety keep the layout familiar, while the ZEROED single-stage trigger breaks clean out of the box. The folding stock adjusts for both length of pull and cheek height, so getting behind an optic comfortably takes about a minute of setup.
Built for Suppressors and Tuning
Up front you get a 16.1 inch medium taper barrel with a 1:10 twist that stabilizes the full spread of 7.62×39 loads, capped with a ZEROED muzzle brake on standard 5/8×24 threads. That thread pitch plays nice with most 30 caliber cans, and the adjustable gas block lets you dial the system down for suppressed shooting or fine-tune it to your preferred ammo. The 15 inch M-LOK handguard with a full-length top Picatinny rail gives you room for lights, lasers, and whatever optic setup you're running.
Range Time with the MK47 DISSENT
At roughly 7.5 pounds with a two-tone Midnight Bronze Cerakote finish, this rifle handles well and looks sharp doing it. It ships with two 30 round magazines, and CMMG backs it with their lifetime quality guarantee. For anyone who loves the 7.62×39 cartridge but wants modern ergonomics and real modularity, this is a hard package to beat.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the CMMG DISSENT MK47 use AK magazines or AR magazines?
It runs standard AK-pattern magazines, which is one of the biggest draws of the MK47 platform. Steel surplus mags and quality polymer options both feed it, and the rifle ships with two 30 round magazines so you're ready to go right out of the box.
Is the DISSENT MK47 a good host for a suppressor?
It's one of the better 7.62×39 suppressor hosts out there. The 16.1 inch barrel wears common 5/8×24 muzzle threads that fit most 30 caliber cans once you remove the ZEROED brake, and the adjustable gas block lets you turn the gas down so the rifle stays smooth and clean when running suppressed.
How does the folding stock work without a buffer tube?
CMMG's DISSENT compact action keeps the entire recoil system inside the receiver, so there's no buffer tube hanging off the back. That frees up the rear of the rifle for a true side-folding stock that lies flat against the receiver, and the stock still adjusts for length of pull and cheek height.
Can lefties run the MK47 DISSENT comfortably?
Yes. The forward non-reciprocating charging handle is reversible and can be set up on either side, and the rifle features ambidextrous controls throughout. Left-handed users get a genuinely workable setup rather than an afterthought.
