I ended up with an upper in 7.62x25. It is marked CNCGUNSPARTS.COM Does anyone know what type mags this upper uses?

I have a PPS-43c in 7.62 tok. They make them in 9mm and I think they use the same mags. So I am not sure but probably 9mm.

There has to be some type of mag block?

After googling it, there appears to be more than one type of upper in 7.62 tokarev, pistol length DI or blowback. The threads I saw spoke about machining the lower for PPS magazines, but there might be other types. So you might have quite a project ahead of you.

ETA Old thread on another site.

Isn't that going to depend on the lower, or mag block adaptor

Standard lower. My question is what are the options as far as mag block and mags.

I got my upper from Heavy Metal Machining, though I'm not sure if he's doing it it anymore.

And for what it's worth, https://www.cncguns.com/  is probably where the upper comes from. He started out goofing around with CAD work for AR-15 parts, and occasionally does runs of parts for sale.

Take a look at what KAK did with endomags to run 7.62x25.

Yes.  I have a Ron Williams DI Tok upper and went to the endomags.  Runs Great.

I'll try the EndoMag and see how it works. Seems to be the cheapest and easiest first step.

Are any modifications required or  do I just need to load mags and let it rip?

As I recall the bolt face needs to be opened up a skosh. And the primers on surplus are typically pretty hard, so a heavier hammer spring might be in order.

Thanks for taking the time to post it.  I’ve been using the PPSH mags but not having to use a magwell block makes the PMag option very interesting

For my Tok upper I opted for a Heavy Metal magazine adapter that takes unmodified PPS43 mags. Downside is it’s expensive, heavy, and has no LRBHO. On the upside the mags have 35 round capacity, a slimmer profile that takes up less space, reliable feeding, easier to identify, and look cool. The mag block is held in place with the standard magazine release button, which I replaced with a bullet button to prevent accidental release. The brass button at the bottom of the block releases the PPS43 mags.

Ok. Now I want a Tok upper. That mag block looks nice too.
