AR Upper in 7.62x25 caliber?

[KRONIK27]

I am looking for a AR Upper in 7.62x25 caliber for a future built. I searched the threads and internet and only see posting that are back in 2009. Any new or reason info on these Uppers?
Here is the only websites I can find, does anyone else have any other info. Thanks

Uh...why?

Uh...why?

Took the words out of my mouth! Then I started to think about how the price of 7.62 x 25 was about 10 cents a round during the 2008-2009 time frame and it was readily available.

I'm planning the same build in the near future. There is another company that made the 7.62x25 uppers but I don't remember the name. Hopefully it is still saved on my computer at home

i remember when .22 was available, let alone cheap...now my cmmg kit sits collecting dust...(i know, it wasnt long ago...melodramatics were needed)

would be nice if there was still a really cheap way to scratch the trigger finger itch, sadly i havent found one yet...

when those 7.62x25 ar uppers came out that was the end of the surplus. rumor is that it was all bought up by some large training outfit.

so if I pretty much built up my AR15 lower standard and then bought one of these, I would pretty much be done and have a fully functioning 7.62x39 AR which the exception of finding the right mags?

Correct.... but I would buy that upper from that Seller. I been watching that Seller Auction for a long while now. He had a 7.62x39 pistol upper I wanted for $499. Ever since Sandy Hook he jacked his prices up. I mean look how much he wants for a mag...$70. There are far more options of 7.62x39 uppers out on the market. But yes you got the idea.

yea i def wouldnt buy this... im just trying to grasp the concept of what is needed to build a 7.62x39 AR instead of buying an AK

I know someone who built one using the 'complete kits' model, where the only thing that is not shipped to you is the receiver.

They used this website to do it: http://www.model1sales.com/

This was a couple of years ago.

The one problem they ran into was trying to use surplus 7.62x39 ammo. They got a batch that would only fire every other round or so. When they went out and bought quality new ammunition. The problem went away.
