So Brownells released a strait 25 round steel mag at shot, would a strait mag be better for feeding? Especially if one cut out the front guide rubs?

Is it just me...or has this round/caliber just getting a slow roll?
Or is it just not have the hype machine that .300 Blackout did? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: It's slow but the growth is speeding up fast. KAK is now making barrels, and Piedmont is doing a lot of really cool stuff and getting CPD to start pumping out dedicated 20 round and even 25 round mags plus even Tula is jumping in on 9x39 imports with a starting price of 50cpr, with Tula jumping in at under half the price that aughta light a fire under Wolf's ass to get down to that claimed 30cpr. |

Updates:
Gas tubes, Magazines and brass cases are all either in or ready for production. To be conservative we will say April for availability. Pre-orders will be available once we have firm delivery date. Suppressors both integral and screw on are available now. Call for more information or see our web site. Our only delay is getting from 2's and 3's back from the ATF. They used to take less then 24 hours but are now backed up due to the shut down. 250gn Tula ammo is in country and available for pre-order now. We have many many many cases on the way to us. For everyone here the price is $0.55 per round if you buy 200 rounds plus shipping. That's $110 plus shipping. Once they arrive at my dock - the price goes up. Sorry our e-commerce is down until we move to another provider. Ralph ~~~~~~~~ Piedmont Cartridge |

It will not work.
The 9x39 requires a very short gas system. |

Makes it inconvenient because I can't just put it on an SBR lower without swapping the buffer, so the shorter gas system lengths make a lot more sense... Especially on the AK variants that have to move that big heavy bolt carrier. I think it would be pretty hard to sell a gun that won't function without a suppressor to John Q Public. |

Also what length is the sweet spot on these? |

I’m running a 7.5 pistol gas system and to me all the powder is being burned. The fact that most are going with a shorter gas system than that would lead me to believe you don’t need a ton of length on the barre if the gas system is sized appropriatey to the barrel. |

Granted it is suppressed all the time, which gives it a bit extra, but any amount of length you can add after that gas hole will only increase reliability within reason. After that an adjustable gas system can give you exactly what you need to get perfect cycling. |

As far as suppressors what would one need to consider? Would a 9mm pistol suppressor be enough? I am really considering a build in this cal....

I *PERSONALLY* wouldn't use one of my pistol suppressors, but if I did I would use a .45 can, but I am squeamish about detonating a suppressor or having a baffle strike. The Hybrid is awesome on the 9x39. Lots of internal room, designed for rifles, and has a .46 hole. |

I'm so happy to start seeing this take off! I've been wanting this for years.
Really hope we can get those AK mags soon, I would in a heartbeat build something with the PSA KS-47 lower. Do any of the side charger uppers work with the PSA lower? Time to start designing a VSS clone in CAD and go from there. |

Anyone have a line on dies for reloading the 9x39 yet? I could probably get Lee to make a set, but with their setup fee one set of dies would be $200 ($150 + $47)

I can only reliably load 5 rounds in a mag, but those 5 rounds feed 100%. I’ve got about 200 rounds through my setup so far. The wolf 278 grain is steel with a copper wash / plating on it, not sure if that means they had reliability issues in getting the round to slide over the chamber lugs in an AR, but that would be my guess as to why it’s not just a normal lacquered steel case. |

Forgot to add, I had chambering issues on my 7.62x39 spikes bolt until I took out the extractor o-ring and ran it with just the spring. It was having trouble snapping over the case rim. No issues with extraction afterwards, presumably because it’s a low pressure round with a steel case and isn’t expanding too much into the chamber walls and getting to the point where you need that extra force on the extractor to prevent a failure to eject.

So would someone in the know on these things advise me as to whats the sweet spot pistol / PDW length is recommended for reliable suppressed keeping subsonic and unsuppressed supersonic. Keeping pistol to PDW sized as much as possible.
I am planning to go all in on this calibur upper. Acquiring a suppressor and shooting it second only to 22lr. With that and also keeping quality in mind. best Materials and a Company who has good reputation with reliability with this round. Who is a good source for Barrel, gas system, Bolt, and Magazines? Thanks |
