The fact that it is made in China does not really mean anything. I know a lot about car parts, they are basically all made in China, from super cheap sh.. to top quality.
Depends what you want to pay.
What about Canadian made rifles? Following your argument, they are all good? Yes, No?
There is a French Canadian guy who makes your LMG look like a SVD, what do you think the price tag is?
Remember, this is being sold at the same price as the LMG. what else do you expect?
From what I gathered so far it is a nice retro rifle, all about the looks, and yes, it is a real gun and fires.
It’s funny people bash it being made in china, in reality I have had a lot more problems with my American made firearms
