Identify this crate of 7.62 x 39?

[dfraser]

Hi all

I got a really good deal on this unopened crate of 7.62x39. The seller told me that it is non corrosive stuff, to me it looks like old corrosive military surplus.

Can someone identify this crate?

The pictures show the only markings on the case and one of the spam cans. No other markings are present.

regards,

Chinese.
Corrosive obviously.

Guy was probably genuinely thinking it was non-corrosive because lever arms is selling them as non-corrosive.
Which is a lie.

Your best bet is to assume it's corrosive.

Not the first time a dealer has lied about x39 ammo.

Kinda figured,

Thanks a bunch guys.

Got an awesome deal on it anyways, so I am happy.

How good of a deal? I think marstar sells this around $189/crate

I bought a crate from marstar three months ago, it was 199$ plus 64$ shipping and then 5% tax on Top (Alberta), this was 225$ local pickup

$64 shipping?!? $225 sounds like a good deal to me!

Marstar are known for their ludicrous shipping and handling fees.

Never ordered there because of that.

Yea that's crazy, I've been able to get x39 at good prices local so I haven't had to order online. Seems prices are going up again tho. Romanian surplus just went up to $259/crate from $239 at lebarons and a few other shops. Soon it will be the same as non corrosive Let's not even talk about bulgarian surplus x54r....

Yeah, I got pinned on that order, but oh well, the $199 price is inviting, but I staying away from ammo purchases from marstar

$269 at CT for a crate of 1200 rounds corrosive Czech ammo. It's all on stripper clips and wrapped in plastic.

X2 on budgetshooterssupply.

I just grabbed a stack of crates of 1440 Chinese for $189 in store at Wanstalls. I think they still had a case or two left.

TEC Tradex has Polish, Hungarian and Bulgarian from $199-239 shipping in...

Tradex is the cheapest corrosive I've seen at 199 with free shipping

If I were to order a crate do they require your PAL to be shown when it's delivered, or do you just give your info when ordering? The reason I am asking is because I typically get things shipped to my work, since I am never home to accept deliveries. I like the idea of getting 120 stripper clips with the crate too, any that I have seen at crappy tire or whoresale are just in boxes of 20.

Info when ordering... If you want stripper clips budgetshooterssupply.com is your best bet.
