All-New: Type 81M
- Thread starter Tactical Imports
- Start date
I’m pretty sure my rifle has a slight bend when I look through the receiver to look into the bore, it goes a tad to the right.
I’ve had the rifle for a few days and already threw the box out because I received it the day before recycling/garbage day.
Will TI take the rifle without original box. It’s the fixed edition which seems to have the issues. Does anyone else have this issue as well if so can someone post some pictures to verify I’m not seeing things. Only picture I seen was that FB post.

'tism came in various flavors, guns or else. What's next, you'll tell me you are offended by the fact that I'm into other things like motor racing and drone strikes, like a true liberal would?

Thanks for the cool picture! See if this one embeds.
The front sight and gas block are different from the T81M. The front sight block looks like an AK one with an open top (Chinese T56 have a full hood) and the gas block lacks the selector valve on the T81. They probably built it from the parts they have lying around. Apart from that and their distinct furniture, everything else looks like a regular T81.
Id speculate the chances of getting a defective rifle are slightly higher than any other rifle.
Ive only seen one from that batch thats severely defective.
Im not really keeping track but this is what Ive heard so far:
A couple of miss aligned barrels (likely still in spec).
One cracked upper handguard
One missing mag release, with a good gouge on the side of the receiver.
A couple twisted folding stocks, one with minor damage to the wood as a result.
So maybe two warrantee claims in the whole bunch so far.
I’ve done that, field stripped it, held it up , looked down , put it in a vise , run a cleaning rod through to see if id get a little resistance if it’s not a clean shot through. When I get home from work I’ll see if I can get a good picture, maybe remove the stock and get a good look from the rear trunnion. My guess 1-3 MM of deviation.
I even asked my girlfriend if she could see it and she did as well, but probably should have asked before telling her what I saw.

Different charge handle as well

Guns is on its way back and a replacement unit will be on its way
My t81 fixed from the second batch is about 2mm off when I look down the barrel to the hole in the center of the rear trunion. I can see about half of the hole. Doesn’t sound like much but it is VERY noticeable. I wouldn’t have to ask anyone if it’s bent - IT LOOKS BENT.
Good news is that it runs like a GD sewing machine. So meh!
