Hello Canada Ammo,
Just wondering..
Is the Norinco 7.62x39mm that you are currently selling on your website, M43 or M67? I was reading on wikipedia (I know reliable source..) that most if not all of the 7.62x39mm is now the upgraded M67 variety? I thought you might know.
Here is the link and part I am referring too.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_the_AK-47_and_M16#Ammunition
Located at the end of the Ammunition Section:
"Most, if not all, of the 7.62x39mm ammunition found today is of the upgraded M67 variety. This variety deleted the steel insert, shifting the center of gravity rearward, and allowing the projectile to destabilize (or yaw) at about 3.3 inches, nearly 6.7 inches earlier in tissue than the M43 round.[101] There is now relative parity between the wounding capacity of the M67 and the current M855 5.56x45mm round. However, there have been repeated and consistent reports of the M855's inability to wound effectively (i.e. fragment) when fired from the short barreled M4 carbine (even at close ranges)."
P.S. I have already bought a crate of this ammo from you, shoots great! I am just curious about the type.
Thank you!
