isn't the rail that comes with this just a standard AR carry handle mount?

It might look like an AR carry handle mount, but there's no way it would attach the same way.

Not to change the subject too much, but how does this shoot/group compared to the Norc M4? The T97 has a slightly longer barrel.

Thanks, I'll check it out tomorrow. For some reason, my home computer is not opening links.

Isn't Canam including a rail? I thought that's what I read.

Yes, for those that pre-order. I'm not sure when the cut off date is, but I'll assume that means the time period before he actually receives and starts shipping.

Thanks, it's fully paid, so now just patiently waiting.

Deckard, is that a photo of you and is that a new Type97A? Just curious. If it is, then I am so jealous.

Bwahahahahahahaha............ That was priceless,
even if Deckard is different than the guy in that pic

 

[Deckard]

I'm either watching sentinel for Lecta's cheap shots, or....it's not me. LOL.

 

[Dr.Lector]

Maitre Deckard, is that your airsoft or your BF2 gun?

It might just be a picture off the internet.

Norinco Type 97A accuracy

Someone asked on another blog about the accuracy of the 97A. If anyone out there has one ( 18.5" barrel ) could you tell me the accuracy you got at 50, 75, and 100 yards? I wouldn't think it would be a target rifle but just curious. Still waiting for mine.

 

[KK1]

I just hope its more accurate then a mini 14 or Ar-180

I second this, i'm also curious. also, is the sniper version going to go on sale?

 

[Deckard]

I know I'll outshoot Lecta in any case.

Accuracy Norinco Type 97

Clobbersaurus got pretty good groupings at 75 yards. I think the scope and your shooting ability will make a big difference. Now, if I could only get my rifle.....

I think the one Canada Ammo has is not the one they show on their site. The one they show is the restricted version. They one they are selling is the one that has the mini-pistol grip ahead of the trigger, like the shorty has but its the full-sized battleweapon.

Personally I prefer the looks of the full sized over the restricted version so this is a plus imo.

DAMN looking at all those photos.....I feel like a 14 year old virgin at a nudie bar.

I can look but I cant have / touch!



PS: If I recal the full sized type 97, the non restricted version, has a 10,000 rd expected life.
