[QUOTE="Bed Wetter, post: 148819, member: 428"] It's funny, because the appeal of 300 blk was that it gave you something ballistically similar to 7.62x39 but you could stick with your existing brass, mags, and bolt. 7.62x39 is not particularly friendly to the AR platform. Likewise, 5.56/223 has not been friendly to the AK platform. Whether you're putting an AK round in an AR or an AR round in an AK, the trick is this: it's best to have someone pretty bright designing the gun or it's not going to work. Smart people and their machinery cost money. You can put an AK round in an AR, but if you want it to function reliably you're going to end up spending money. Truth be told, we have a lot of crazy machinery run by computer programs now and I Think there will eventually be cheap, reliable, accurate 7.62x39 ARs but it's still a few years out. [/QUOTE]
