looking for polymer 762x39 mags

[Shurshot]

Anyone know if anybody makes polymer mags for a 762x39? All I can find online are made of steel. Thanks!

In AR platform steel is all you would want. They do make polymer AK and SkS mags for 7.62x39

I am assuming this is for an AR? I have not seen anything other than steel either.

Yes for an AR.

May I ask why?

Sorry for the typo, steel is all that is available not necessarily what you want. I’ve never found anyone that could answer why all AR mags for 7.62x39 are steel but that’s all I’ve ever seen. I will say in my guns the duramags run well.

The poly mags tend to swell out and jam in the 7.62 AR 15. It's caused by the taper of the case, it's a lot more severe than a 5.56. The Grendel does it as well.

Thanks for the info. Steel it is.
