T97 picture thread

A few days ago.
I used to hear a lot issues with these but a few friends had some good ones. I took a chance and love it. Shot well over 100 rounds yesterday trying to get a malfunction but it was flawless. I know that's not a lot of rounds but so far so good.
I have also recently joined the club :
Sight's just a $50 CT-bought Tasco. It does the trick until I can scrounge up a couple hundred bucks for something nicer.
Waiting on a pair of M14.ca rails for the front slots, I like the "aggressive" look of empty rails.
I darkened all the writing on mine so it's only visible if you look up-close. Hadn't at the time I took these quick pics though. Not a fan of bright stand-out writing on my rifles.
No downside to using a 3-point with these as shooting them lefty is a pain anyways.
Honestly, Type 97 = 29.8" OAL of pure Non-restricted fun.
Mine's a 14###x as well. Perhaps the first two digits are the year of manufacture?

The reviews for some of the stuff on there are promising. Have you bought a lot there? NCStar quality or worse?
I'm seriously considering trying them out, those prices are unreal even for knockoffs.

Yeah I think the FTU is good for different height mounts. I tried my new Holosun red dot with the high mount so I could keep the BUIS on and co-witness. Cheek was fine. Really having fun with the T97. Definitely not fast enough on mag changes to use in a match though.
That is one interesting bullup
What 5/20 mag is that? Looks great as it sits flush with the pistol grip!

It looks like a pcv beowulf mag. I like the look too
Thought there was issues with the fit and function of these in the T97?..... Guess it could be in there for staging...
Fits and functions fine for me. Doesn't drop-free but, feeds and inserts fine.
I had to file down PCV's .50 beo mags a bit - mostly at the spine and the outside of the feed lips - to fit properly.
I put a Burris Fastfire III on for now. It's tiny, and really preserves your peripheral vision well. Such a small reflex sight is great for quick shooting - like taking out pumpkins and cans of tomatoes at 25-100 meters. I might put a trijicon accupoint 1-4 on the FTU, but it's currently on something else and I would need to replace it.
And the bayonet is just for fun (when those pumpkins get too close).

Regular
5 minutes of sanding and filing and mine drops free no prob
Of the mag or the Mag well?
Also if you sand and file the Magwell to accommodate the thicker mags (PMAG and Beowolfs), won't it be too lose for the metal mags?
Thx!
