(GunReports.com) — Monroe, NC-based I.O. Inc. is bringing the Beryl Polish assault rifle to the United States as a civilian model. Named the “Archer,” this I.O. Inc. rifle is manufactured in Poland’s Fabryka Broni “Łucznik” – Radom plant, and prominently displays the trademark FB (Fabryka Broni) on the left side of the receiver.
Featuring an 18-inch hammer-forged barrel with 1:9 RH twist, the Archer features a military finish with mil-spec receiver, tactical pistol grip and black polymer furniture. It has adjustable front and rear sights, a tactical swivel sling and can fit a full line of optional accessories, such as design-specific Hi-Lux scope and original Polish military scope mount.
It is also the only AK to feature a “bolt hold open” integrated into the safety lever on the right side of the receiver. Fully 922R compliant, the Archer is an immediate favorite for fans of the AK platform.
