Norinco's T-81

[Selenius]

Hello boys and girls,

Has anyone tried in an unbiased manner the t-81 fromnoeinco?

If so what are your thoughts? How did you like it and is it worth 1k?

 

[bfiles]

It's not even here yet.

Unicorn farts are more available right now than the t-81

WTF is taking so long anyway? I didn't even pre-order and I'm still irritated.

I guess the 10,000 posts in the dealer thread wasnt enough info.

They are probably here but the RCMP have decided to put them back as prohibited or something equally stupid.

Not even in production yet most likely; we can probably expect the RCMP BS to start after they are made up and placed in purgatory.

The RCMP already APPROVED these as non restricted for Canada and this was AFTER the liberals were elected to power, I don't hold alot of stock in their decision making but if they were going to make this a prohib, they would have done so already because the liberals were in power by the time they classified it, but they didn't.

not in production yet, most likely March/April after Chinese new year

你怎么知道的？

It could be deduced from the dealers original post.

Regarding the stock, after their adoption, quite some T81s with fixed stocks were reported by PLA to have developed sizable cracks in a couple of years of handling. Further, the cost was a bit higher making the fixed stock version (China is timber scarce). Therefore, when technology rendered the sate arsenals the ability to make folding ones with acceptable qualities for combat situation, the folding stock T81s soon became the major issued version for PLA and the Chinese police force. The wood used for the original T81 fixed stock is Chinese Catalpa wood.

BTW, this imported version shall be called Poly Tech T81, not Norinco. Both Norinco and Poly Tech are China state owned enterprises (supervised by SASAC) ,but they are "independent" legal entities, and are deemed as "competitors" for China's arms import and export. Know both well.
