The steel case they had was Barnaul, which has been sanctioned. Unless they find another country to buy steel case from they are out of stock for good. Their brass case is 45 cpr with free shipping if you have the membership. I’ve shot about 200 rds of it. No issues.
Turns out century arms is importing bsp
And they have 7.62x39 and 7.62x54R and Romanian 7.62x54R global ordnance. And there’s this new stuff from maxxtech nfr 7.62x39 loaded in usa with imported steel casings. Aaand tela just released 545
I was just curious what 5.45 was going for. 79 Cents a round. Holy Cow!
I got into the 74 game years ago and bought 7N6 for a nickel a round. Crazy!
It was Overpriced then…
I could make an easy 4k, so money in the bank. And still have 6000 rounds for myself left
The AK-74 is a fine weapon
Check gun broker, I was getting mine there much cheaper than telas crazy price. I’m also resisting the urge to ask every day when the tooling is set up. I just assume guitar guy will have updates up as they come.
Sitting at 1600 rounds, but I don’t want to blow it without a backstop. Who knows how long tela will keep importing either, not exactly the most stable place in earth.
People are saying it’s corrosive im saying clean your gun. Its not rocket science.
In fairness it can be hard to get in the smaller areas like in the gas block.
There’s no way the PSA stuff will be corrosive. They sell guns with nitride barrels, and non chrome gas blocks. PSA probably sells other guns aside from AKs in combloc calibers (I don’t know the rest of the portfolio like that) and it could be problematic in those. They’d have a lot of warranty issues. No one wants to see that. Not us, not them. Given they have their own primer factory and it’s going to be shared by many lines, I just don’t see that as a worry.
The tela stuff might be slightly corrosive, and with that price tag… yikes. But yeah, worst case you take the furniture off and dunk it in a sink.
Use a small brush
Did the SA/AAC 762x39 get released? I received an email stating the “out of stock notification I signed up for”….i.e. this ammo , said the item was back in stock, but the email link still showed out. Did it hit the internet shelves but sell out like a micro? ![]()
I havent seen it in stock yet.
I hadn’t seen it either, but wasn’t sure if it sold out quickly before I saw the email.
It would have been in stock for at least an hour in order for you to get the email.
If you aren’t bought into 7.62x39 AKs at this point it seems like your best bet is just to go with 5.56x45 AK’s. That’s what I’ll probably be doing since I don’t own any AKs yet.
You can get 7.62x39 & 5.45x39 from telaimpex. New ammo
$29.99 for a 30 rnd box of 5.45x39. So in other words $1 CPR that’s compared to about $0.50 for 5.56x45. Literall half the cost! 5.45x39 is still too expensive unfortunately.
Has there been any 7.62x39 PSA made ammo sold yet? I am on the notification list but hoping I can get a few rounds soon. ![]()
