Best current deal on *non-corrosive* 7.62x39?

I bought from canadaammo and it was quick with free shipping, they even included a screwdriver set, targets and a nice ar pen. Very good service!!
 
I also was wondering how come the old Chinese surplus ammo can be non-corrosive. Forget about ammo, I personally never trust whatever is advertised as soon as it's made in China. Though, I thought Lever Arms has tested the ammo and confirmed it as non-corrosive. It would be too much embarrassment for them if someone would show up with his rusted out rifle and asking to pay for the damage due to their misrepresented product.
 
Yeah I wouldn't trust anything surplus to be non corrosive. Bottom line, clean your damn guns people, itl assure no rust and flawless operation every time out. Seriously, it takes me 30 mins to tear down and squeaky clean, I'm anal to.

I have one sks that I rarely clean and shoot between 1500 to 2000 rnds of Chinese non corrosive silver box,red box and now the newer stuff can am has.
Not once I have seen rust or any malfunctions.
That's the only gun I do it too. I have other sks and shoot the same ammo but I religiously clean them.
 
I split a case of "non-corrosive" from lever arms with a buddy. I left my SKS rifle with my cousin along with 60 or so rounds to try out, afterwards he didn't know how to tear it down and he is up island so I told him to leave it in his furnace room (warm and low humidity) and I would clean it with him the next time I visited. Long story short, the gas piston was frozen in place inside the gas tube with rust... the end of the barrel where the chrome lining ends was covered in mustard colored rust... his bro in law left his gun uncleaned after firing the same stuff and the bolt and barrel were rusty as heck. Lesson learned: unless it's brass new manufacture made-in-usa ammo, I clean every gun every time.
 
Unless it states in on the box non corrosive.
The lever arm stuff is indeed corrosive but nor silver box and such were made after 95 and they did not use corrosive primers.
