mission: 7.62 x 39mm Ammunition
Intelligence:
other than the .22LR, the most prevalent round on planet Earth is the 7.62x39mm. It is the round that is chambered for the AK-47 and SKS. The cartridge was initially designed right before the Second World War, and was first fired in the SKS by the Russians. The cartridge remained the standard for the Russians and many third world countries. It is still the standard cartridge for the Chinese, who as of ten years ago already had over 300 million AK-47s. The 7.62x39mm round was also the standard for the Warsaw pact countries (i.e. communist and Eastern Bloc).
