AFAIK the AK was built for shooting steel case ammo. Pretty sure their military still uses steel for their AK74s. The AR can shoot steel, but whether or not they’ll play nice with them can be random.
That's spot on there. It's a very mild/soft steel the casings are made from. think about the kind of steel used to forge the barrel chambers and bolt faces.
