    win 94 clone in 762x25

    Hey, is there any chance of having a Norinco-made win 94 clone made chambered in 762x25? I would love one and judging by the large number of people asking for a 762x25 rifle, I imagine they would sell fast if it could be done.

    i said why at first too. but then thinking about it the price of x25. a win 94 clone in it would be quite fun. youd have quite a mag cap. if the barrel could be stainless that would really amp up the fun

    Buying a Rossi in .357 Magnum would likely get you better performance without the hassle of doing R&D on feeding rimless ammo through a tube-fed lever action.

    7.62x25 ammo is mostly corrosive, no? I'd hate to disassemble a Win.94 clone for cleaning on a regular basis. Stainless steel barrel or not, to prevent rust after shooting corrosive ammo the guts gotta get a cleaning to.

    I would buy one if the cycled well. 7.62 by 25 is real cheap to buy. Doesn't even have to be the greatest accuracy but yes, would be fun to shoot.

    I have been looking for something cool in 7.62x25 for a long time. This would be pretty cool.

    X25 is available from Norinco in Non-corrosive for $18 per 50 so that is not a problem. However, I would shoot corrosive and just spray the action
    with WD-40 afterwards because there won't be as much residue coming back from the chamber of a non-semi-auto.

    The advantage that I see with 7.62x25 over, say, 9mm is the higher velocity and lower BC for shooting out to 100m.

    I mean I love the idea and would buy one immediately if it worked (be awesome for plinking) but this ^ is a good point.
