    7.62x39 has been in metric (.311/.312) and imperial (.308), but has been dependent on which platform (AR vs AK). At 1 time I've seen the 7.62x39 in .308 with matching brass. Does all AK mag work with all AK's regardless of country of origin?

    They should, but when you're dealing with drunk commie slave labor, don't be surprised if you need to fit a magazine to your gun.

    All 7.62x39 mags should work in any 7.62x39 ak.

    I prefer stamped receivers
    Reasoning on why you prefer stamped? From vids I've seen they've either failed due to it being stamped or timing being off causing cracks.

    They won't work in an unconvered Saiga rifle, but all others are usually interchangeable. Some magwells on some imported rifles that were converted in the US may have loose tolerances like early WASR 10's, but I have yet to see one myself out of dozens of WASR rifles. New ones are better in that regard.

    Seams that AK's run better than the AR versions because of mags? Seems like more the curve of the mag enhances the feeding on AK's even though the grendel is closer on design?
