QBB 97 Light Support Weapon

Sooo in summary, Cifyra is full of #### basically, and the closest he came to shooting guns in China (Hong Kong) was when his friends went and paid to shoot them somewhere.....and gets most of his information from Airsoft forums and video games, and calls a curved mag a "banana mag".
SU16shooter served in the forces in Hong Kong, has hands on experience with these rifles, and seems to know what he is talking about.

lol!
Lmfao I am a gun owner here in Canada of 8+ firearms including guns used by the People's Liberation Army and People's Armed Police. Of course I haven't fired a gun before! Also,
Hong Kong is a special administrative region of the People's Republic of China, and formerly a British crown colony. As such it has never had any military force of its own, and defence have always been the responsibilities of the sovereign power.
He's served with the Hong Kong forces? Ironically the closest thing to "Hong Kong forces" are the airsofters I see in Kowloon.

Don't argue with me, argue with the people who make the magazines calling them that. The fact that you're claiming he served with the fictional "Hong Kong forces" show who's really the one that's full of ####."
At this point I don't even know why I bother to correct your misinformations. If you don't appreciate me, someone who has connections with the Communist Party and best friend serving as a specialist in the People's Liberation Army, telling you the truth, then I'll let you guys believe whatever you want.
Cheers!

Unfortunately GUB, as you can see forums is the place where dreams and hopes die, where good natured banter turn into flame wars and personal attacks. I do have contacts back in the mainland to get certain accessories, uniforms, etc. However, I'm pretty sure it's said connections that attracted these trolls. "OMGS He's got connections with the communist party he must be a commie bastard let's get him boys!"
*shake my head*
mmmmm Chinese food
Don't get discouraged!! A while back I was getting slammed for suggesting a sponsor have a "SUPER SALE". And guess what? The sponsor is now having a "AMMO SUPER SALE"!!!!This has been a good thread and don't forget most are the silent majority. People that don't like the thread,comments or the poster!!! "JUST DON'T READ THE THREAD"
Alright, I speak for the "silent majority" (as you put it). The OP was asking if the QBB97 was coming into Canada.. it isn't. Not now, not ever.
Also, a store having a sale is hardly a victory; stores do that from time to time! Bringing a "new" gun into the market is a completely different story.
END THE FED (I mean, the THREAD).
I wonder, how many people like you after the first Type 97 ban said Type 97 would never come to Canada, not now, not ever? If we don't try how will we get anything here in this anti-gun atmosphere? It is precisely this kind of thinking that contributes to the antis and fudds in depriving us of our liberty. By slamming a suggestion for a new firearm on the *sole* criteria that "it'll be too scary for RCMP approval" does nothing for our cause. A house divided against itself cannot stand.
I don't think the issue is that it's too scary; after all, the RCMP did classify the NSR as NR. The issue is that not enough people see the appeal of a firearm way too similar to one we have now. Why pay a few hundred dollars more for a rifle, when you can just get the lower cost one and put a cheap bi-pod on it? Sure, the barrel is different, but compared to say, an AK and an RPK, there's just less appeal.
You have to think business as well. Bringing in new firearms in Canada costs money. Does a company want to put in the required time and effort to bring in these rifles? To them, is it worth it?
I'm all for getting new stuff, but there's just more at stake here than we may realize.
Question for you guys that have knowledge of the Chinese guns.
Do you think Canada Ammo could get their version of the 97 with the lower that has a forehand pistolgrip built into the trigger guard like this one? Seems like a better design to me?
Was this an earlier design? If it was earlier......why did they change it?

The compromise would be bringing in a few conversion kits. Still can't see how that won't make business sense, as it's low risk and a few of us here would definitely grab one. If it's all that risky just do pre-orders, it's not even a big deal.

The fact that they omitted the front grip for the upgraded Type 95-1 as well might be the same reason why US Army and Marine Corps omitted full-auto on their rifles. Perhaps they thought soldiers using the trigger guard as grip would make less accurate shots compared to a firm hold at the handguard portion of the rifle.
Cifyra, I don't see any reason a person couldn't choose to use the handguard as the grip or the trigger guard grip with the pictured model....nice to have options for different scenarios.
I'd love to see that lower combined with the Upper that Frank's team is making.
