barrel sight alighnment will be better with this version..... but I like my FTU.
Does NS ever answer these threads?

Front rail seems to stick out a little further at the top, but overall very similar. One thing that I can see being appealing is not having to do the modifications yourself. Thankfully my father had all the tools needed, otherwise it would have been a PITA for me to do the modification. The other thing is it would likely be cheaper to have it all assembled and shipped from China then having to buy it piece meal with Canadian parts.
That said I love my FTU and can't wait to pick up my LHG that Canada post said was delivered this morning.

Very interesting.
I've been eyeing the t97 for a while, but once you pay for the FTU it just gets too darn expensive for me. If this can be just as cheap as the old t97 I might have to save up for one...

I like the look even better than the FTU and it seems to sit lower too (but the FTU looks really good too!). The front part of the rail gives a very modern look compared to the original T97.
I would also expect it to be cheaper than buying a regular T97 and adding the FTU.
Now, if Norinco could do something about that awful lower, we wouldn't have to buy a LHG!
Not that I don't like T97.ca, but I can't convince myself to buy a T97 and than add about 2/3 of the rifle's value in modifications VS buying a Tavor or something similar for a little more money.

I got a PM response regarding my thread detailing the problem with the factory sights, and an easy fix.
http://www.canadiangunnutz.com/forum...Sight-Question
It came about a month after I made the thread and was basically "We've never heard this complaint before"
My response was "You probably have, just not articulated. Everyone knows the sights suck, I'm just telling you why in detail."
And that was it.
I can see that factory railed version being delayed because someone told that them that there's more to keymod than just the keyhole shape, it has to be tapered inside as well.
