I would say that these guys will take what they can get.  They're probably not able to rock the BCM upper with an Elcan, Geissele rail, and SSA-E.

They are actually 7.62x39 some of those rifles.

I have friends with it in the Ukraine and they are legal but the .223 are seriously hard to get.

From an older thread of mine.

Ukraine was saying a ways back that it was going to change over to an AR Platform, but keep 7.62x39 for the HUGE stockpiles of Ammo they have ...
