Norinco type 81 nr-81 being made again

[Ohno]

@Fenceline: re:AP80/AK22 classification while this is correct how about the same MP5 22 (GSG-522) look-a-like that was classed as a prohib despite no parts compatibility?
The RCMP still classify based on looks and not solely on function/lineage. There still seems to be no consistency with their classifications though.

Very cool rifle

 

[Hondatech]

Interested in the LMG version. Price will decide though

Wish we could get a better update than still under review... The csa pistol had a solid eta

It had a solid ETA a week before it was announced. No sooner.

Ever try to use the lower to make the upper fire?

Same process they use to determine if an AR is a variant. Ask ATRS how their first sample of the Modern Hunter got deemed an AR variant. Lots of duct tape and an AR upper on their first lower attempt.

Same deal. Same reason the Mossberg lower and Adkal lowers got classified the way they did.

I am interested in the type 81, if it's under 2.5K (valmets are more, this will be better than one of those) and 3K for the LR t97

Well at least you aren't asking to spend $5000.

1200 would be ok for me its still rape but ti is low number high profit so were screwed either way suprised they can stay in business

 

[mobusten]

If they came in with a slightly longer barrel to make it NR I'd buy one. I wouldn't want the LMG version though.

 

[1leggeddog]

Except the lab can't prohibit guns on looks. Politicians banned guns by looks, and their variants.

And yet here we are.

 

[fenceline]

And yet here we are.

Yup. Waiting for it to be classified. Regardless what the rhetoric is.

Anything that resembles an AK will never be approved.

 

[sunjeep24]

You Have a better chance getting Ebola than an AK variant! Anyone agree? Lol

 

[sunjeep24]

I know cz858 with wood furniture but you see how that turned into a mess. To have an AK or SMG would be amazing in canada but it will never happen with all the paranoia around firearms

 

[fenceline]

You needed 3 posts to say all that?

"If it looks like an ak..." Vz58.

"You'll get Ebola before an AK variant". It isn't a variant, its a unique design. And you can get two different AK variants, the m78 and the hunter. Not that it matters, it isn't an AK operating system in the 81.

"Paranoia" seems to go both ways doesn't it. I'm going to go shoot my vz61 now. That rifle based on a submachine gun that was approved not too long ago, even with the pistol version that came later being a named prohib. But hey, I guess looks aren't everything.

 

[M-A-X]

NR I wonder what that stands for?

lol. Non-Restricted. They're not aiming at the Canadian market at all...

And it's been 2 times they're rebuilding a rifle for us

If the Chinese don't stop doing favours for Canadian shooters, Justin might take back his ringing endorsement of their government.

I have notice that Norinco has long range precision version of NSR. Very interesting piece.

Already stated in this thread about 20 times.. and has already been sold in Canada -- unless it will be going under the NSR name instead of KBU-97a/Type 97a Sniper. Tactical Imports had the last batch, $3K each. There are only about a dozen in the country.
