AR 7.62x39 “Stoneikov” build

[DadSmith]

Did you research the Young Manufacturing bolt by chance?

One of the best youtubers I watch (IMO) did a lot of 7.62 ARs and his solution ultimately was the YM bolt.

I highly recommend his channel for the reviews in general. He's the only guy I've ever actually supported financially on patreon/subscribe star. He helped me with a build and is building an upper for me right now actually.

Added video to watch list.

I’m surprised they didn’t pop up on my radar. I’ll give them a try if I manage to break this Faxon bolt.

They have a chrome bolt but doesn't say what it is for. Best to shoot them an email before buying.

I'm in agreement with him. Duramag 28rd 7.62x39mm magazines are imo the best.
The 10rd magazine are also good for hunting and target shooting.

I built a 7.62x39 AR-15 more than a decade ago, before I started hearing of people having problems with their builds.
I used a Model 1Sales barrel and BCG. The rest was generic parts mixed and matched.

At first, I was told I could, " just use .223 mags", and of course that did not work well.
I bought a couple of the CProducts mags and had no more issues.
