Would you consider bringing in Norinco 97 bullpups? (Part Deux)

As a trained engineer, I have to say:

Unless we know they are using the same standard, this barrel life thing makes little sense.

I agree, too many variables, There just generalizations or guides.

 

[Dimitri]

You must be referring to absolute service rifle life? Meaning with barrel changes and proper care/gauging etc...

Yup absolute service rifle life is 400,000 rounds.

Nothing on mine, and no indications (resets in the metal, etc) of their intention to be there.

Here's the night sight on the QBZ-95:

So I guess that this crappy night sight was removed from production-at least for our 97A..........

No signs of those illumination points on the rear or front sights.
On the rear sight there are 3 apertures and a "post" that you can rotate through. Also, instead of the number engraved and painted on the side facing the shooter as in your pic above, the number is just engraved and it's on the top (read while looking straight down on the top of the gun, it's on the aperture's top).
A similarity in the sights is the hole (looks like it's for a pin) that is seen in your pic slightly below the 300m aperture is also below the 300m on the Type 97A.

OK then I will ask potential importers...

Can we please have night sights?

 

[Leonidas]

They actually look pretty useless and clutter up the sight picture.

It looks like the Type 97 uses an AR type front post in which case we could use a decent tritium front sight post anyway.

Some Chinese fans took these pics, not 97 but 88 sniper:

see the white dot?

Close up:

rear:

88 sniper, any one know how to use it?

I still doubt the soot from left side thing:

Unless the Chinese know how to make Tritium Capsules(which I believe, as for now, are still in development), we probably have to modify from the parts which are intended for other firearms or even have to scratch built.........

I read somewhere that in some of the Chinese firearms that are debuted recently, are have voids on the iron sights that are intended for the Tritium Capsules........

Does M16 come with might sights?

 

[Deckard]

 

[Leonidas]

Man I am in love with the 88 sniper.

Am I right that Lever had one in 5.56mm but sold it for big bucks?

It must have an FRT then right?

No the M16 does not generally come with night sights. I meant AK not AR type post; but aftermarket tritium capsule sights are available for either and quite cheap too.

 

[Deckard]

The 88 is just "okay" in 5.56. But I'd bend over backwards for a cheap 97!

Those sights are not mighty at all .......

And no, I don't think the garden variety AR15 comes with night sights, although these are available as aftermarket parts..........

I have seen one in Edmonton, but the dealer wanted $2300.00 for it. It had a factory scope, but I went for the Hbar AR.

That about sums it up, as long as people can buy an AR for the same price the chinese guns just won't sell.

I thought Leverarms is the only dealer....
