I literally just paid my layaway off from Atlantic Firearms on this exact rifle. Can't wait to get it. Quick question- how did you mount your optic?

I wasn't sure if a regular Bravo Optics mount would work or not. I'll probably go that route before I decide if I'm getting the factory rail or not. Just not sure if I'm a fan of the height of the factory rail. Thanks! |

Picked mine up a few weeks ago, very happy for the bayonet lug.
Less happy that the Atlantic ones don’t come with the Fime triggers anymore. Have had the early handguard and rail for a while, picked up the Bonesteel folder since I missed the boat when the original folding stocks were around. Kinda like the old school Beryl setup; I might get the new stock eventually though. Attached File |

Has anyone’s rifle had canted sights? I just got mine from Atlantic and the front sight is canted left and the rear sight is canted right. The rifle zeros fine, but I wasn’t sure if this a common issue with the FB Radom Beryl. My WBP Fox was perfect!!!

Sights are not canted. It has a bayonet lug but what bayonet fits? Also I need a clearing rod and I guess a cleaning kit for the buttstock trapdoor. Attached File |

I dug out the bayonet that came with my old Polish underfolder kit and fit just fine. The ring was a little tight so be careful installing/removing that you don’t stab yourself. |

View Quote I was just about to order one of these until I saw this, at that price they should at least check for canted sights. Very disappointed in Atlantic. |

I was a bit disappointed for sure. I could always contact them for repair I suppose. But I have put the optic rail on it and will be shooting with a red dot mostly. I just was curious if anyone else has had this issue.

Are they removing the front sight base to machine the bayonet lug?
Anyone know what is actually being done to these after they get to the US? |

View Quote I was wondering the same thing! Do they weld the bayo lug on the OG post? The flash hider is pressed on, so replacing it would be a PITA. Edit to my earlier post: I secured the barrel in a vice and gave it some whacks with a dead blow hammer and checked the front sight with straight edges, and BAM! Straight. Easy fix. |

Are the front sight bases secured with roll pins or solid pins? What about the gas blocks?

I wish Arms of America or Atlantic Firearms would chime in and let us know what is actually done to these when they are imported. I did some research and found pictures of military Beryl rifles with solid pins and also early IO import Archer rifles with solid pins so I am really curious what is going on. @Atlantic-Firearms |

Any idea why the front sight bases have roll pins now? The older imported guns seem to have had solid pins. |

View Quote Sorry we do not know but have seen both FB & WBP use roll pins from time to time. I do know that both AOA & Atlantic have indicated to both firms that we prefer the solid pins. |

Do you guys have any guns with the plain muzzle like the ones offered AOA? From what I understand that is the way they are imported? |

Perhaps you guys should see if they would resurrect the old M545 Beryl as a product for the US market.
Pretty much no competition for that aside from PSA! |

Hey Atlantic Firearms do your current Beryl 5.56 rifles have the blacked out markings or are they white? Any chance you can post some pics of current guns?
Also AOA is offering guns with no bayonet lug under a "blem" SKU for $100 less. Will you guys be doing anything similar? @ATLANTIC-FIREARMS |

All FB Beryl rifles produced for the last 1.5 - 2 years have the white markings they switched from engraving to laser etching and that was a factory choice.
We do not currently have any blems for sale . Please let us know if you have any other questions . Beryl Rifle |
