Received this from Elvis. I can't see exactly what the problem is, but it is easy to see that there is a problem with the ammo.

Here is the reason we steer clear of china sport 7.62x39mm ammo.

Cheers, Vince

The infamous folded case mouth! I have shot tons of the china sport and not seen this but it is a real potential safety hazard if the burr becomes lodged in your chamber or barrel and you fire the next shot...

Banned in the US, but it's like shooting a high school kid's science experiment, (one who didn't care about details). I've never seen that either, just lots of muzzle flash and it's dirty like Russian ammo. Some people say it smells funny too, must be some sort of filler they use. I've only shot the .308 ammo and it was very cheap to shoot.

Back in the mid 80's I bought a norinco sks,very nice shooter-btw,and some of the chicom 7.62x39 copper washed ammo in the sardine can.That was the most accurate ammo that I have found for the gun from any commie block country!Too bad they don't make it/or import that stuff anymore.Only stuff I see nowadays is the green laquer rounds-which just have to be nasty to clean afterwards. Sad
