7.62x39 unknown (to me)

[pirateer2007]

Hello all! I got a lot of information on one type of ammo, so I thought I would ask about a couple more of my unknowns here.

1. Norinco 7.62x39 in 20 round boxes.

2. Unknown brand, 20rd brown cardboard box that says "STÜCK". Headstamp says 04 69

3. Unknown brand, 10rd blister packs unmarked. Headstamp says 05 90

I'm really just wondering if any of this is anything more than just burn-it-up plinking ammo.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks so much! Is any of it likely corrosive?

Always treat surplus as corrosive.

East German ammo, Not all of the E German 7.62 x 39 was steel core

I believe Bill Clinton ended cheap Chinese ammo so that has to be pre 2000

Just take a magnet to the projectile & see if they are steel...
Steel projectiles are worth more money
