I have one on order and have heard others being worried about the whole chamber issue and whether or not these are old rifles.  I emailed Victor at JLD yesterday and he confirmed that the ones Sarco is selling or old overstock rifles but just don't have a threaded barrel.  He assured me that all of them are 7.62 NATO chambered and not the old old style with .308 match chambers.  

Just thought I'd pass it on to anyone thinking about ordering one.
