GunTech:
I really enjoy reading you guys' objective ammo/rifle evaluations.
What is the typical bullet used in common x39 rds. used around the world in classic AKs and the SKS by armies, guerrillas etc? The Russian black-market arms merchant (former AF officer) who is now being extradicted to the US would have supplied mostly Russian-made ammo around the planet?
Even though many people are hit by more than one round, is the ammo in authentic AKs usually fmj, or possibly jhp?
Curious, because I've mentioned before the colorful, graphic photos of a single fatal wound to a Texas feral pig, posted about two years ago
(on "THR" or "Thefiringline). The guy's SKS ammo was jhp, but no idea whether US-made, commercial Russian etc.
If the Cuban govt. ever opens up and we decide to lift the trade embargo, would they have any incentive to buy more modern rifles, and sell us many pallets of x39 ammo?
Samco in Miami is just 90 miles away, and many tourist$ come to Cuba from the Caribbean, Latin America to spend lots of money.
Sure, the idea is crazy, but so was the idea that the Berlin Wall would ever be torn down.
