Tough to find these days, and when you do, you better bring your big boy check book! They have been popping up pretty regularly on another forum, mostly complete BCGs, but the prices are insane, like $400.
If you are in no hurry, try rguns. I ordered one from them on 12-20 and still haven't received a ship notice.

You have two options, you can spend a ton of money on Gunbroker or Ebay and get one now. Or you can find a place and backorder one at regular rates and wait months.
I have one on order from rguns too. I figure Early March will be roughly when they ship.

Their website reflects that they have the 7.62x39 bcgs in stock, but I just don't see how that's possible. The guy on the phone said they were in stock in no uncertain terms, but I still just don't see how that's possible.

A guy on gunbroker had a ton of stripped bolt carriers for $30 the other day. Regular prices are still out there, you just have to find them.

You're exactly right about FINDING them. Lot's of M16 carriers being sold on eBay right now. Anyone notice that? Find it weird?
