Good for your pops. Sounds like every day is a good day, and he doesn't want to use an AK.

Red X arms makes good cheap uppers. I have one in 5.56 and am happy with it. Also have a 300blk from hardened arms that was not expensive that has been good so far. I know I have seen 7.62x39 uppers on red x's website.

I decided to put the ar47 on the back burner. I had already purchased standard ar lowers, and couldn't find a 7.62 upper that didn't have some kind of feeding issues. The only thing that seems smart to buy is a ks47 lower from Palmetto, and I wasn't looking to spend that much more right now.

He doesn't have an AR, but does have an AK, and just wanted an AR in the 7.62 so he didn't have to worry about extra ammo. Tough. He's getting this for christmas with an anderson lower and better put me in his god damn will. Bought it while it was $499:
