Conversion to 7.62x25

The biggest challenge is that 7.62x25 is too long, but maybe some can suggest a gun that can take it or if mag is customized somehow, it would fit in.
 
why would you want to shoot 7.62x25? Just curious because the only kind of that ammo I was able to get up here was surplus and it was horrible.
I was using it in my NorcTok , but got a 9mm barrel for it and now it is way better.

Dirt cheap surplus ammo + powerful cartridge if you get commercial ammo.

I know its cheap for the surplus but that stuff is crap , you can't hit anything with it , and it is very hard to find commercial ammo in Canada in that caliber.
It has quite the pop to it but in my opinion its just not worth it .
 
I was thinkling more of hand rolled ammo, but even the surplus, matched up with the proper barrel etc, would be mighty fine in a long gun. IMHO

Are they really that bad? I was sorta considering getting a Tokarev sometime in the spring.
 
Most of the bangers want it as it will penetrate a vest...... had several young guys looking for it and most had the same question it will penetrate a vest right... sure makes you wonder.....
 
I love the 7.62/25 especially in the CZ-52 with that cool roller delay action ,a heavier spring to soak up some recoil and houge rubber grips. The Russians have recently made a few cool handguns and subguns for the 7.62/25 because
they have had so many crooks wearing vests. Also they make a great choice for penetrating soft cover or even cars. I know for a fact they make the fold up sub gun from Robocop in it.

Another cool thing about the 7.62/25 is it gets to almost magnum powered revolver levels in an auto pistol round especially the hot commercial ones.
 
I found that magazine.
It's the latest issue of the AR-15 magazine.
It lists all aspects of the design and what is available part-wise.
Among the calibers listed is 7.62x25, so somewhere in the States someone is at least making a kit to convert to 7.62x25.
