    Right. I understand. Not sure why I started talking cases. Maybe because whenever I hear the word "steel" used in combination with ARs I automatically run back to thinking cases.

    Not arguing the superiority of import barrels either, we're on the same page there. I would like to see this test performed with AKs though.

    1 import barrel using M67
    1 import barrel using Tula
    1 domestic barrel (chromed lined) using Wolf
    1 domestic barrel (non chrome lined) using Brown Bear

    +1 more bonus barrel test using M67 on a domestic non chrome lined barrel.


    If we could dig up enough Chinese M43 I would like to see that used also but alas collectors far and wide would be screaming.
    I would like to do a test like the Luckygunner test with AK's however import barrels are scarce and expensive when you find them without their rifles attached. At todays prices even for unconverted Saiga AK's I don't have the financial interest to destroy two or more import AK's/barrels. I am sitting on 500 rounds of old Chinese steel core Norinco ball ammo though. I've had it in storage since the 1990's.
