Thread: Ukrainian adopts 7.62x39 AR system

Hey @Sarvo let's not get political.

Just thought it was interesting that another country was adopting the Stoner system. A few people in NZ have 7.62x39 AR type rifles. They are often considered more of a curiosity rather than something to bet your life on. I can say that the larger bolt face required etc presents some challenges for the system. The NEA (Canadian) ones have a bugger bolt at the cost of material in the barrel extension. The American made ones generally open out a standard AR bolt which makes the bolt weaker.
