That site has another page that is in itself past whatever it's prime was as far as the information goes. The whole page is long over due for an update. Samco Global Arms, as a source for surplus firearms for instance, mentioned in opening remarks, has long been out of business.

The first online mention, that I could find, of the Army maybe getting a 7.62 was from last May.
