That ain't 7.62x39R.  Never heard of it. It used to commonly be called that. But it isn't rimmed like .303 or 7.62x54R? The "R" is for Russian. Back in the 70s and 80s, it was generally referred to as "7.62 Russian." You can also see it called "7.62x39 Russian," leading to, I guess, "7.62x39R." It sort of stuck around into the early/ mid 90s as well. I have one fo the older annuals and in referencing Mini-30s, SKS, and the 7.62x39 AR it refers to the round as the 7.62 Soviet and 7.62x39 Soviet. Properly the M43 Soviet. Failing that, 7.62x39. Anything else is just iggernant. |

Maybe it's like fish hooks stuck in your favorite fishing cap?

Geezus...some of you guys make me wonder.. It's not to tell them which way to point the gun, or to indicate which bullet they should use... 
It means that they've taken an enemy's life in battle. Just a sort of status thing. Sorta their version of a hogs tooth?

Though I suppose there's a lot of different first hand reasons. |
