How old are you and who told you that load of crap?
The 7.62x39mm is "too powerful" for scope mounting???!!!!!

The sheer absurdity in that statement absolutely astounds me!!!!!! Particularly when you consider other MORE powerful military and civilian rounds -- like the 7.62 NATO, the round in which the M14 and M24 are chambered -- are scoped and in a light weapons platform. And no one loses their eyes.
And AK47s aren't exactly capable of pinpoint accuracy either. A so-called "trained or expert shot" can only wring out so much accuracy. (And what exactly is your definition of such an individual?)
