Hey
I there a way to remove the coating on the Romanian surplus ammo?
after testing with seiller surplus non coated my tokarev runs amazing ....I have half a crate of it so I'm either selling it or removing coating
thanks
Glenn
 
Sell it, the lacquer will be more difficult to remove form the ammo then it will be to sell it and buy ammo you know works.

Whats the problem anyways? Are they sticking in the chamber?
 
both my guns don't like the ammo my tokarev slide sticks after round is discharged and I sometimes have to tap the rear end to push it back ...
my P762 twice I had the casing stick to the barrel and the extractor had the rear end so the slide wouldn't move at all and I had to stick cleaning rod down barrel to loosen the casing.
I'll still use it but if anyone at the range I'm at or locally wants it I'll be more then happy to sell
 
This ammo if its BXN marked 51-53 on stripper clips is made for chez sub guns. Its loaded with 86 grain projectile that has steel core penetrator. I chronied it and out of my chinese tok bullets fly out at 1750-1780 fps. Much hotter than what normal loading for 7.62x25 should be. Chez ammo was usually loaded hotter than other com block countries due to different firearms that they designed for themselves like cz 52 for example that took full advantage of hotter ammo.
If you have trouble with this ammo, sell it as is, don't do anything to it. If you clean the lacker off which will expose bare metal case, then it will stick and expand even more in the barrel as you fire it.
Get some different ammo for your pistols like new copper washed ammo that Tradex has, it should solve your issue.
 
That'd be a fine brass wire wheel in a bench grinder. Eye protection is far more important than gloves, but using a wheel very likely won't work anyway. Does for surface rust though.
What is a chez sub gun? That a Czech SMG?
 
I have copper washed ammo aswell and love it...I'm going to range tomorrow one of the guys was looking for tok ammo and I explained the problem I'm having...gave him some last week to try out and if he wants more I'll have it for him..or anyone else that may want it...I'm still going to shoot it either way just going to mix it up some washed some not..no biggie.
thanks for the info ...but taking a wire brush to 1040 rounds ...don't think so but thanks for the ideas.
taping the back of my tok when it jams would be quicker then removing the coating.
