7.62x25 upper showed.....WOW, pic and update now in OP - AR15.COM

I was interested in a rifle or carbine in this caliber for a while then gave up hope when I couldn't find any info on them. Here's the solution. I'm going to post this in the AR forum too.

There's an article in the current issue of Shotgun News.

Only problem is I don't have an AR lower to use it on. I'd still like to possibly re-barrel a small ring Mauser for this caliber.

No freakin way! And I thought the 5.7 uppers were hot!
I need to win the lotto, because one of those with a monsterman grip and bullet button would be on my 'to buy' list!

The potential is amazing for this upper. I would buy one of these in a heartbeat, as the surplus ammo is still dirt cheap compared to anything else... except perhaps the surplus AK74 stuff out there.
