The shitty magazines for the AR in 7.62x39

And also the gun is designed around certain parameters, AK being 7.62 and AR being 5.56

x39 ARs don't feed reliably and look silly.

Is that it?

>And also the gun is designed around certain parameters,
So, you're saying that all those ARs chambed in .300blk and other meme calibers are also trash and the designers don't know what they are doing?

No I am not and did not say that.

The AR was specifically designed for cartridges lacking the taper that x39 has. Also the a 7.62x39 bolt in the AR has very thin walls due to the cartridges' size.

.300 and 6.5 and 6.8 was designed specifically for operation inside an AR platform and 7.62x39 was not.

>>29500886
Yes and no.

Yes because its based on an AR10 and usually downsizing to a smaller cartridge isnt as much an issue as upsizing a smaller gun to a larger one.

No because it looks ugly as fuck and still has issues with certain magazines. Also the torture tests people do on them are not reassuring.

I'm not here to provide you with spiritual reassurance. Contact your pastor/rabbi/imam
>I can only show you an example of AR pattern the reliably feed 7.62x39

An AK.
Next question.

AKs are just fun and they're cool.

But knock yourself out and buy whatever you want. I have an AR and an AK and no desire to get an AR chambered in 7.62x39. Just get both.

.300 BLK uses a 5.56 case. Same bolt, same mags.

This, AKs are cheap enough and have an excelent aftermarket. No need to spend out the ass for a special snowflake AR.

What light is that how much did it cost and how do you like it
>>
>>29501060
Surefire P2X tactical, I think it was around $100 or so.

I like it, 500 lumens and surefire. What's not to like? As a weapon light, I prefer it to the G2X.

Did you build that AK

>>29500826
Don't listen to this trans-caliber-phobes! It was born an AR but deep down it knew it was an AK. Help it transition the way it was meant to, OP. So it can be as big a fag as you!!!!
>>
>>29501099
No but I replaced the wood furniture with arsenal polymer furniture, a krebs safety lever, wolff xp recoil spring, texas trigger, griffin armament flashcomp, and ultimak.

It was in pretty rough shape and well used. Eventually I'll get around to refinishing it just to beat it up all over again.

I was on the subject of 7.62x39 AR Pattern rifles.
Not of the subject of Tacticooled ARs, Tacticooling doesn't destroy all of the Community support of the base rifle, Picking some non-standard caliber does.
>AR
>Anything but .223/5.56
Literally no reason unless someone else is paying for your shit.
