Anyone shooting one of the 5.45x39 AR's? The way I understnd it will shoot the cheap AK74 ammo and is a cheap way to have ammo to practice. Are there any issues? Will it use regular AR15 mags? Where is the cheap ammo?
the mags are crap.
want 4 good working mags for a 545 AR? Buy 16 and see which ones work.
I was interested in doing this at one time...but never got around to it.
Now, a quick look at Ammoman.com shows that 5.45 no longer has any significant edge on cheap .223/5.56. In fact some cheap Russian .223 is actually cheaper than some Russian 5.45.
So other than the fun factor, why shoot a 5.45 AR?
