Only in your dreams, the Russian rust rod can not compete with either the M56 or the D model, not even if it were still brand spanking new in the box.
Can't comment on the Type 56, but the D in no way compares to a Russian.

Since I own multiples of both I can guarantee you are way off by a country mile, the Norinco guns are so vastly superior to the garbage Russian rust rods that the rusting Russian guns don't even qualify as boat anchors, not in fit, finish or quality of steel, the Russian guns are a great design but pure and utter crap after that.
Norinco superior? Yeah right, I've had the D, the 54-1, and the M305. They have all gone down the road and I have no desire to own another Norc.
