Cool rechamberings I'd love to see...

5.45x39 would be great, there is a large quantity of surplus available on the world market. Only reason it's not here is because the main platform that shoots it was prohibited nearly 20 years ago. A bit chicken and the egg as how do you start the popularity, gun or ammunition first? I don't see why one of our larger importers couldn't secure both at the same time.

.300 Blackout would also be a nice option.

Yeah, the Russians have 17 million AK-74s in inventory, to put that into perspective that's a 70% larger number than the total number of AR-15s in existance, add the 5.45 AKs used by ex Soviet and ex Warsaw Pact states and there must be LOTS of 5.45 surplus out there.

I agree. I don't get the lure of the blackout.

I'd like to try cat's sneeze loads. Much harder to do with a supersonic cartridge that wasn't designed for subsonic use. It's been done but the risks are much greater.

Can the 5.45x39 use the same magazines as 7.62x39mm?

Nope. Would probably work better with 5.56mm mags.

what i would really like is a short barrelled vz58 in 7.62x25 tok. with something that looks like ppsh-41 mags it would be a sweet looking smg
