Skinny snake eyes pickins Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Trade Pending... Want to trade my AR chambered in 762x39. It has a high standards firearms lower made right here in Houston. Ghost firearms upper and BCG. Low round count. Removed my night vision and installed a Millet 3x9x44 scope. 1 ten round and 1 thirty round mag. Some ammo available. I am looking for a lever action rifle preferably a 20” carbine chambered in 357. Uberti or Winchester 1873 or 1892 replicas. Will take a Rossi if it is a recent model and had work done. I need this to finish up a another set up in 357. I can add a little cash for a nice rifle. prefer face to face in the Houston area but will travel a bit. not sure about shipping in today’s time but I may.

Lucky Lawdog Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 You can shoot .223 out of a 5.56 but not the other way around. If it says .223/5.56 you can use either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can find a sale for the AR, I have a lead on a New 20" Miroku 73 in .357 mag, I can give you. I don't think he would be interested in your gun but he'd sell and ship to an FFL. PM if you want details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.D. Daily Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 If you want a durable 7.62x39 AR-15 upper you need a CMMG 7.62x39 upper. The 7.62x39 has a larger rim diameter than 223/5.56. That means there is less metal in the bolt that surrounds the case base. CMMG has a proprietary upper, bolt carrier & bolt that has more metal. AR-15 7.62x39 bolts are known to have short life spans. P.S. If you want an AR lower that doesn't have caliber marking PSA has generic stripped lowers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for the late response guys I have been really busy.. I work for an airline and times are crazy these days. I have a trade pending down here in Texas and I am swapping out the lower with a Anderson that reads Multi. That seemed to bother people. Its the right thing to do. I have several . the lower pictured is a better made lower and is home town. Also most people want 556 and this would be correct if you mated it to a 556 upper.
