I have a wooden ammo creat that is Norinco 7.62X39. Just wondering if anyone knows how to tell if it is AP ammo without cracking the creat. It has 1200 rounds inside and doesn't say much else. I have been told by different people it is AP and others say it isn't. Any help would be great.

I'll check my old crate tomorrow to see if it states what type of ammo it contained. It may be different now that I think about it, because it contained 1440 rounds, not 1200. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

question.

Is "AP" for Anti-Personal or Armor Piercing?

I'm going to say it stands for armor piercing.

Right on, S/J! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

7.62x39 is getting harder and harder to get your hands on lately...

Sadly, you got that right! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> In fact, at one store I was told that it is considered a "terrorist round"! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

and Hillary sits back with a big smile.

Yep! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbdn.gif" alt="" />

there is only one way to tell. . . send the crate to me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I propose an ammo tax subsidy. Of course I have included some "pork" in my new bill which includes a tax write off for all knife purchases and 1 Busse family blade credit per quarter.
