I wonder if 350 legend would be a good fit? That can shoot far and suppressed out of 9mm cans. If not I'd be fine with 300 too and or 556 as they're cheaper and easier to find than many others. Especially with the bans on Russia ammo nonsense.
are there no domestic manufacturers of 7.62x39? as an aside, once Ukraine blows over, i suspect we will see an immediate commercial offloading of deadstock into the US.
It takes standard pattern AR mags, they just have a few that look like the OG that go with the gun.
Price was originally something like 1700 or maybe a little less when provided directly from manufacturer, PSA has decided (like all esteemed profits driven companies) to rape you and your wallet without remorse because, well, they can.It takes standard pattern AR mags, they just have a few that look like the OG that go with the gun.
I was thinking of getting it in 300BO. Hopefully its not pushing that 2K price tag or it will be really hard to justify vs just getting more ammo and shooting what I have.
was never into it personally. Underperforming in the qualities that I typically seek, and has been turned into a holy figure by the cult of younger and generally brain-rotted Combloc fans. round does nothing for me, crowd pushes me away
Ok.... Fudds at the camp called it a "BB" gun too. The largest deer taken at the camp this year. Haven't heard any more crap talk. Jumped 20 feet and fell stone dead. X39
Yes, but we'll never see the old bulk cheap stuff again. Biden? Obama? took care of that by banning Russian ammo imports. Wish they would ban ANY imports from chi-na but the elected Chinese prostitutes would never do it.
I hear you can cycle 762 by 39 from a regular AR-15 mag, just can't load more than 10 rounds without it curving around inside the mag and jammingIt takes standard pattern AR mags, they just have a few that look like the OG that go with the gun.

Before covid shut things down there was talk about a Russian Saiga factory coming to Florida and establishing domestic production of pure Russian AK's and ammo on American soil, to get around the import tariffs and restrictions. Much the same way Toyota vehicles have done the same thing and are now produced in America. I see this as the future in caliber wars. Obama shut down the last US lead smelting factory and made all US military ammo in the future lead free, so that's going to kill US production of cheap 223-556 in the near future and drive prices through the roof and encourage competition with other calibers. In a weird twist, 308/762 NATO is projected to soon be cheaper than 223/556 because we'll all still be able to buy surplus lead core 762 NATO after all military issue lead free 556 government order factory overruns have been deemed armor piercing and illegal to sell to the public. Word to the wise: buy a lifetime worth of lead core 223 now. It will never be cheaper in your lifetime then it is right now unless a future administration opens up a new American lead smelting industry
Not relevant to what i said. The operative words for the more astute readers in the class was “the qualities that i typically seek”.
No sir, i dont have much interest in the great desert expanse, just as a whole i value the ballistics of 5.56 and 5.45. Nothing wrong with 7.62x39, but it doesnt excite me.
I agree with this mostly. Lots of ways to skin a cat.
