Chinese Type 81, heard they are coming to Canada

[pcvando]

Yeah just like how I bought 10 German K98 ww2 all matching rifles for $25. (sarcasm)

I cant believe how full of poop people are.

[diablo_man]

I think everyone missed Diablo mans sarcasm..

Hehe, yup.

If it is in the same basic action type and the same caliber, it is the same gun!

Why would you want a Sig 226 9mm when you can get the Hipoint 9mm, same gun right?

[rci2950]

I see, so this is with parts designed originally for the gun and for the purposes of select fire? Does this assume that one could get drop in parts legally or fabricate them? We know several guns can be converted to select fire, and said conversions wouldn't be as designers intended (10/22, Glock, M305, AR-15's, a little knowledge of engineering and even youtube videos showing it.

You sound like you should get a job with the RCMP. Just stick with your side by side stevens there elmer fuddd and we will get these type 81

Well I certainly hope two things.
1. the Type 81 sells for sub $1,000 and
2. venders bring in LOTS of AK mags

[sigrunes]

I will buy one for sure if they are $800-$900 or less. Anything more would be tough to justify IMHO.

I hope they bring in lots of type 81 mags so the gun's bolt hold open feature works

^^ This.

[zupermann]

Question: The Type 81 takes AK mags--but they don't activate the bolt hold open, but the dedicated T 81 mags do.
So, do they work like the hold opens on the Yugo M70 AK's? (meaning that when the mag is removed, the bolt slams closed)
OR does the T81 have a mechanism to lock the bolt back when a mag runs dry? Anyone know 4 sure?

[Darren saltiel]

Now I know modifying the receiver is illegal but how about pushing the trigger guard forward to the mag release attach a new trigger to a push bar and modify stock? . Bam! Instant ak looking monstrosity . As long as barrel length is good and OAL length on the non res imports

[fenceline]

Modifying a receiver is not illegal.
