7.62x39 identification

If you want to know if ammo is corrosive look at primer. If primer is found or dome shaped its corrosive. If primer is flat its nn corrosive. Hope this helps someone

Shoot it, let it sit uncleaned for a week, check for rust in the barrel. Duh.

You better do your research. Check the head stamp and make sure the ammo is non corrosive.

Pulled out bunch of this ammo that I forgot I had. Anyone k ow anything about it. It's 7.62x39 hollow point has two headstamp numbers 3 and 94 primer is gray. You think it's corrosive or non corrosive?
