Would You Buy AK Ammo At This Price?

How much of a discount would you give me for 50-100 cases at a time?

No that is not a typo. See my sig line. That is my company.

If you wouldn't mind, could you please send me a PM? I'm curious as to country of origin and what arms factory you are dealing with.
 
So EOtech, have you actually found any non steel core 7.62x39?

Really curious how you can find non steel core 7.62 while other major importers can't....Then again, if all you've found is steel core, now you know why you found it. :scrutiny:
 
I think it would be more fruitful to argue that the steel cored 7.62x39 isn't AP because it contains lead in the core. What the law actually says is that the core has to be composed entirely of evil metals, and M43 projectiles contain lead.
 
i would buy one case and try it out. If it was good, and that price point held, I would be in for several more. And then in a few months, several more. Etc.

PS As in, if you get this stuff in stock, I will have the money to you that week. My ammo fund is flush and the 7.62x39 is finally starting to look a little lean.

PPS Same deal for 5.45x39.
 
I've personally fired a brand of Wolf 7.62x39 which lack steel in their bullets. I've never been able to find that stuff ever again. It's perhaps more important to me than others because the range I shoot at is in Angeles Forest, and the park services people will not let us shoot anything with steel in it. :banghead:
 
There are several pistols that shoot rifle rounds like the T/C Contender and the Lone Eagle in 5.56MM and .30-06 yet they don't ban the AP rounds in those calibers?????
From what I understand Olympic Arms made a few prototypes of a 7.62x39MM pistol but never released them to the public so why did the ATF make such a ridiculous ban??
Last but not least there is a pistol version of the AR15...none of that makes any sense!
 
Let's not give them any ideas, ok?

If faced with the logical inconsistencies, they could go:

"You're right. Let's unban the 7.62x39."

or

"You're right. Let's ban the others, too."

Which do you think the BATF will pick?

If you can get it to happen for $100 a case I am in for 20-30 cases and I can drive to pick it up. If you give me a 2 week heads up I will be in for 40 cases
 
Oh yes-

What I said before (1 case right away, more to follow if it is good), only holds if it is non-corrosive.

Mike
 
I am still awaiting email replies from the people... Remember, these are European countries, and people move at a slower pace over there...
 
I'd be interrested in a couple of cases if it's non-corrosive. Probably more later.
 
So, my understanding is that this stuff is a mild steel core... and the BATFaggots said no? How does that work then? Roughly half the mosin ammo imported has the mild steel cores.

I thought the law said "bullets containing a core of one type of metal that is hardened" or something to that effect. :confused: :mad:

You guys are spreading a lot of falsehoods:
-the mildness or hardness of the steel is IMMATERIAL. Steel of any grade in a bullet's core makes it "armor piercing"
-5.56mm steel and tungsten core is true armor piercing but is exempted by the ATF regardless of the fact that there are pistols made for it.
-7.62x39 steel core is not true armor piercing because it only has a mild steel core, but since it has a steel core it is considered armor piercing in the US Code. And since there are 7.62x39 pistols in existance, it is an "armor piercing round made for a handgun."

This is really basic stuff, spelled out right in the statute. Why you would spend hours arguing against me when you could look it up in the US Code in 30 seconds is beyond me.

emphasis added by me:
18 USC § 921 (a) (17) (B)
The term “armor piercing ammunition” means—
(i) a projectile or projectile core which may be used in a handgun and which is constructed entirely (excluding the presence of traces of other substances) from one or a combination of tungsten alloys, steel, iron, brass, bronze, beryllium copper, or depleted uranium; or
(ii) a full jacketed projectile larger than .22 caliber designed and intended for use in a handgun and whose jacket has a weight of more than 25 percent of the total weight of the projectile.
