If not mistaken, the reason they(x39 uppers) weren't more well known and popular is they had less than stellar reviews. I think that a lot of those issues were fixed by putting more angle on mags for rimmed cartridge, and mid length system. If mistaken please correct have kicked around x39 upper build for a project, but still haven't done whole lot of research. I'm sure some one with more knowledge can chime in(maybe??). I also wanna say upgraded bolt helped but cant remember if just in SBR's. Man I really wanna do a 7.5'' 7.62x39 upper. Even if only for range toy.

The 300 Blackout is the far better solution.
Considering that we now have the option for the .300 BO I would be inclined to agree, somewhat. However, the availability of cheap 7.62 x 39 is a strong reason to continue the support of that cartridge in an AR platform.
Also from a supersonic perspective I think that Wilson's concept is also superior...
