Wow man, that is annoying. I bet there was no particular reason for that either... just CP being CP.. hopefully they catch it before it goes too far. Mine came 2 days late as well, was redirected/delayed twice. Call them.

It's something we are looking into for the next shipment
Are you guys bringing in type 81 SR MLok handguards?
My Type 81 came in, straight as an arrow and all accessories in the box. Thanks TI.
The Samson cheek riser fits very very snugly and feels great. I highly recommend them.
Here is a pic of mine with one of the "fakelite" mags I am also working on. Sorry about the glare, I am not a good photographer and my shop lights are right above the bench
Some things to note:
- The pistol grip was slightly loose, easy fix but I switched mine out with a VZ-58 one. Near perfect fit
- The underfolder mechanism was loose, easy fix by punching the outer pin out and tightening it up a few turns. It was not required and functioned fine without it, it just feels sturdier now. Mine has very little up and down play while locked open, less than most UF AKs
- The finish is thin, but holds up better than Russian AKs finish which will come off with anything harsher than CLP. I personally like the look
- The safety is difficult to use because the UF mech sits quite close to it

To fix you would have to remove the pins, straighten the sight, redrill, and re-pin it. It should be good to go as is though
Plan to compensate the individuals that have fallen "by the wayside"? Especially the ones you have been telling for 3 weeks that their order has been shipped and that they need to be patient? There are some that ordered on the 12th (Low #27###) still waiting myself included, while others have already received replacement firearms on warranty. I think its possible these people that have fallen "by the wayside" also ordered the hand-guard but also asked for a mild order combination. I am relatively positive that at this point he can is being kicked down the road so that shipping can be saved and the orders combined. I now have learned to never order accessories when buying a firearm, or ask for order combinations any longer when ordering firearms from TI shipments. Just buy the firearm and be done with it. This isnt worth this level of headache.
Here's a link to a post on the main Type 81 Pic/mod thread showing a video from GreasyGus showing the Type 81 M in action, including hip firing with the stock folded. https://www.canadiangunnutz.com/forum/showthread.php/1661873-Type-81-pictures-range-reports-and-modifications-thread?p=20178121&viewfull=1#post20178121
A good friend’s son is totally into the Shooting Sports but doesn’t have anyone to take him out to do all the “guy things”, so I’ve taken him under my wing & have had him to the range a bunch, including shooting a Milsurp Match & today for his birthday he got to shoot the T81M underfolder!!! To say the kid was pumped is an understatement!!!
This is how you spell HAPPY BIRTHDAY to a kid who loves the sport! Let him shoot cool guns!!! Thanks TI we love the rifle!!!
