 SPECIAL NOTICE: AK47World has SOLD OUT of FMJ (Full Metal Jacket) Brown Bear 7.62 x 39mm AK-47 - SOLD OUT !!! 

  

AK47World.com CAUTIONS shooters over the use of lower-priced & LOWER QUALITY Brass-Cased Yugoslavian or Egyptian ammo out there when considering ammo for your AK-47 with chrome-lined chambers - unless you have a non-chrome-lined barrel (Yugo AK's & SKS Rifles) - as you're MUCH SAFER following the Soviet & Chi-Com standard of using STEEL-CASED Ammo in AK's + SKS Rifles with Chrome-Lined chambers !

 

    That's WHY AK47World.com DOES NOT SELL any brass-cased Yugo or Egyptian 7.62 x 39mm ammo on this site, as its use in Rapid-Fire or dirty conditions could become hazardous in Rapid-Fire & Dirty conditions with chrome-lined chambered AK's & SKS Rifles!

 

    This is also why AK-47 ammo for the U.S. Joint Contracting Command supplies to the Afghan & Iraqi Army units - had to be STEEL-CASED per Mil-Spec requirements - as the U.S. Pentagon PAID Federal Ammunition $200 million dollars in 2009 to buy STEEL-CASED 7.62 x 39mm ammo for harsh conditions in Iraq & Afghanistan, and is the SAME REASON the Israeli Defense Force's SEAL Type Unit ('Shayetet 13' or 'Flotilla 13' http://www.specwarnet.net/world/shayetet13.htm) also uses AK-47's with STEEL-CASED ammunition - because M-16/M-4 & AK-47 style Galil rifles the regular IDF units use - fire weaker Brass-Cased 5.56 & 7.62 NATO ammo & the harsh sand and Salt Water of the Red Sea dictated to IDF Squadron 13 Commandos to use only STEEL-Cased AK ammo & AK-47 Rifles for better reliability in the Amphibious Landing conditions they frequently encounter !!!

 In 2009, the owner of AK47World.com (Daniel King) gave an interview to a Defense Magazine Reporter about the $200 Million Dollars the Pentagon was spending to buy Afghan & Iraqi Military Units 'Steel-Cased' ammo - as U.S. Ammo manufacturers don't seem to be interested in making what AK's NEED - 'Steel-Cased' AK ammo.

 Although the reporter kept confusing 'steel-jacketed' with 'Steel-Cased' ammo, the article excerpt (below) illustrates WHY AK owners should DEMAND 'Steel-Cased' AK ammo for their Combloc Weapons & leave Brass-Cased ammo to AR-15's, Ruger Mini-14's & Mini-30's & other NATO weapons that don't tear brass cases like Combloc weapons do with their brutal - but efficient extraction systems !

"To grasp just how much the US defense industry’s loyalty to its own nation has eroded, take what Alliance TechSystems (ATS) has done to make a simple bullet.

ATS of Minneapolis (Federal Brand Ammunition) is the US military’s largest civilian small-arms ammunition maker, and since 2008 has been awarded $200 million in American taxpayer dollars to deliver AK-47 rounds (7.62 x 39mm) to Afghan security forces.

Two-hundred million to make bullets sounds like a stimulus plan for American defense manufacturing. Yet ATK went on to “second-source” the contract to the former Soviet Union. ATK claims they had no choice but to go overseas, and offered only the following statement in explanation:

“There are no large manufacturers of non-standard, non-NATO ammunitions in this country,” says ATK spokesperson Amanda Covington. “There are only small manufacturers.”

But Dan King, who runs AK47World.com, a Web site that’s all things about the assault rifle used widely by the Communists during the Cold War, believes ATK is deliberately obfuscating.

He says the phrase “non-standard non-NATO ammunition” – when applied to AK-47 rounds – can be simplified this way: it is an AK-47 round made with a steel casing or a steel jacket. ATK actually makes a 7.62 x 39mm round here in the US, but only in a brass casing; it’s available at Wal-Mart.

The reason NATO desires a steel jacket (should've said 'steel-case') is that Afghan forces fighting the Taliban refuse to fire brass-jacketed (should've said 'steel-cased') AK-47 rounds. They argue the brass jacket has made a few AK’s overheat and breakdown. But all ATK really needs to make steel-jacketed (should've said 'steel-cased') 7.62 x 39mm rounds here in America, says King, is to purchase some new (steel) round-making presses, order some steel and lacquer, and hire more employees to make several million rounds.

And ATK, with $3.5 billion in sales in 2007, seemingly has the means. Especially when they were awarded another $52 million in 2008 to upgrade their Missouri-based Lake City Army Ammunition Plant.

“We get money to modernize our [ammunition manufacturing facilities] all the time,” says Covington, the ATK spokesperson.

The statement prompts King to say, “I guarantee they [procurement officers at the Pentagon] are going to pay too much for this ammo. These people are famous for this.”
