I have a Swede like that also, it is a little hard on the brass but still reloadable. I took mine deer hunting several years ago. Yes, it is a heavy rifle.
Egypt also made a 7.62X39 called a Rashide or something like that.

BRT, that is the Hakim you are thinking of and its in 8mm i believe. Actually, it looked like the surplus brass was getting beat up worse than my reloads were. I need to make up some sort of brass catcher. While the other shooters were setting up new targets, i was hunting brass. The thing throws it forward 30 feet!

BRT, now you've gone and done it! I've been wanting to add a 7.62x39 gun to my collection and AK's and SKS's just don't do it for me. I will be on the
lookout at the Tulsa show.
