    They will be more likely sold as fast as G36. Even faster

    If you brought in like double digit amounts similar to last time i’d believe it would sell. It won’t sell in quantities like the Type 81 but I’s be down for 5k just to own something unique and hard to find.

    Also I’d like to point out that type 81’s regularly sell for 20k in the USA. Again, I’d be more than happy to pay a deposit in order for you to consider bringing these in. Pretty please?

    Norinco stuff sells for good money in the U.S because it is forbidden. I wouldn't trust the same turnout for buyers here and if I were bringing them in I'd insist on the full payment upfront.

    I'd be ok with the same pre-order process as I had to go through to get the latest FAMAE. Pay a grand or two upfront, non-refundable. The rest is due upon delivery.

    Definitely a sweet piece for every Chinese military arms collector. Accuracy is descent, comes to about 1.5 MOA at 100 yds (remove the clamped bipod from the barrel when shooting). It is hammer fired unlike the type 97 striker system, but trigger is still mushy with no obvious wall and long trigger pull.

    5k is a crazy amount of money for something that could be taken away at the stroke of a pen. Small batches might be able to be sold to high end collectors that have a lot of money. The average Canadian shooter, especially considering the current political climate would not be interested at that price point.

    People constantly drop $1200+ on piece of #### WK 180s, don’t underestimate what they’d be willing to spend on a gun that actually functions properly.

    QUB 88 has a horrible reputation as an inaccurate DMR/Sniper Rifle. If anything, try to import CS/LR14, Qbz 03 or semi version of the new Chinese standard issue firearm in 5.56.

    Come on guys, you’re the same people who brought in that crazy Lynx bull pup monstrosity and THIS is too off the cuff for you to handle? Do the needful…
