7.62 x 39 cheapo ammo?

[ConnRadd]

Looking to keep expanding my black rifle collection....

I order the SSAR-15 Slide Fire and wanting to build a few play guns with it. On the list is 7.62 x 39, which the ammo is really cheap. But, my concern that I have: With the cheapo Russian Lacquer coated ammo, will I run into issues of build up on a AR-Style rifle? Which I read it can cause cycle issues by gumming it up... I know the AKs eats that type of ammo like candy, but I'm already invested into the ARs.
I also saw that the same company makes a Polymer Coated Ammo, which I have no idea about it...

Thanks for any input...

Just sell the ARs and get AKs, problem solved!

You could try Golden Bear ammo, it is brass-plated steel case ammo, and usually isn't much higher than the lacquer coated Brown Bear ammo.

There's silver bear, too. That's pretty much all I shoot in my ARs now. The zinc plating is naturally slippery.
