Deckard, me having the inside track on the neat toys
is a huge overstatement. I happened to know
some info.
But it doesn’t matter, I am not believed anyway
(for instance, when I said more than a year ago
that Norinco won’t distribute type97 for a while,
when I recently said that nobody can commercially bring it
other than Lever for now, etc, etc).
FYI, Norinco (commercial sales dept)
receives more than 100 calls a week
regarding this rifle, half of them from Canada.
If you didn't figure it out yet,
ANY Canadian distributor and/or importer
would be more than happy to sell 97's.
Nevertheless, your threads have
always made me eat a lot of popcorn
I hope to drink a beer with Palinak too. I didn’t hear from him in a while.
He never returns my calls. He only calls when he needs something.
You should have come when you said, I was waiting for you the last fall.
Now I won’t have many “toys” before May/June.
Actually right now I don’t have much interest in what you call toys.
To your disappointment, when I have time, for the purpose of fun,
this $99 thing (very bad quality) is what captivates me right now:

Member 22Short-Improved has A LOT more toys than me.
I think he has about six bullpups or so

(he is in begging need of a life).
He is also the poster-boy of attention whoring
and he must be in pain and suffering now that he can’t post pics.
And no, I’m not spec ops. I never was.
But the seller of those particular guns wished no pics were taken,
especially the 308 (but you don’t have to worry,
the 308 won’t make it here before 3-4 yrs., if ever).
The guns were not mine and I didn’t make 1 cent.
But, I have to tell you this, so you won't be disapointed
just in case (when and if you go shooting with me)
you believe that it's gonna be like a trip to Disneyland, or somping
I will
have to keep your camera in my pocket
(and cell phone and everything that can hold a camera).
Member 22short-Improved had 4 cameras on him
when he first came to see the 88. JFC!!!
But you will probably see soon pics of
some other 88’s brought in Canada.
Thru the grapevine et al I heard Lever brought in very few 88's.
The first batch supposedly were
more than double the price they sell the 97,
and only if you had enough connections and relations
to by-pass the waiting list.
I can guess pics will start to pop out sometime soon
here at the Attention-Whore Central.
But I can’t wait for your threads

on the subject and of course, all the gravy on the side
(“it’s a $100 rifle”, “second importer”, “marstar please save us”,
math formulas, “norinco we are begging you”,
price estimates, polls and such).
Yeah, I played in that movie, but didn’t make too much money.
If you give me exclusive distributor rights,
I can become a dealer here and sell computer games.
Everyone wants to be Deckard for a day,
so I can make a lot of green selling this:

Lat me know when the upgrades are ready.
Keep up the thread starting and putting pressure on the importers.
Long live your noise making!
