They would be birch laminate, same as original Akm stocks. I would also copy the akm swell which is rounder at the bottom.
Im in.

Would anyone be interested in AKM style laminate stocks, handguards and grips? With longer LOP and lower comb on the stock. I might have the opportunity to get a run made as long as there's enough interest.
Not through the rear trunnion
I noticed something. These rifles have the sight block moved down the barrel...but the sight block is also different. There's no bayonet mount on this rifle, therefore, not military. These are civy rifles, made for a civy western market, right? Do I win the chicken dinner?

Anyone have a pic of a folder without the cleaning rod hole?
These ones.![]()
All type 81s that came into Canada were made for the civy Canadian marketEven the ones with the bayonet mount
Yep. I need one of those as well!
I managed to buy a LMG a fixed and a folder within a week. Now the APC money is gone.
Darn, although you will enjoy those 3!
I think we have some time before an FRT and an import happens, so start saving up again!
Minor variations may be custom, but it's on an already existing assembly line that produces military orders.
Well, no. There are military surplus rifles, and then there are Norinco shleps. They are not the same, not by a long shot. I'm not saying these 81's are the latter, I'm just saying we've seen the latter before.

that gas block looks weird.
No I’m replying to the fellow that says they all 81 have holes. My folder does not.
