Hi, I was wondering if anyone has ordered a Type 81 from Tactical Imports recently and would be able to vouch for how quickly they complete and ship orders. Now that the Type 81 appears to be out of pre order on their website I'm curious how quickly I could get one of my own prior to *ahem* a certain date in June many people seem to be concerned about. I'm not a fan of the fear mongering or conspiracy theories that many people here seem to enjoy but I also can't think of a better excuse to get this rifle that I've been wanting for a while :p
 
Ah after double checking the page they do still classify it as a "pre-order item". I mistakenly assumed that when the items went from sold out to available again that meant they actually had stock available in Canada

Saw 1 at fishing world in hamilton
 
Sporteque has fixed and folders in stock presently.
Or wait a year or 2 for TI to raise enough money on preorders to place an order as they don't seem to have the capital to buy it themselves like a normal company.

what did they do with the huge profits from the first two shipments?

That's a good catch, impressively they offer shipping all the way to Alberta for under 40 dollars! As an Alberta resident I also don't need to pay the 15% taxes either :cool:

I already own a CZ 858 and a Vz 58. Should I even bother with getting a Type 81? What's the allure?

Yes, you should bother bro... I have both...these two rifles are entirely different experiences. Fit and finish goes to my czech wonder, but all the fun goes to my Type 81. The 81 is a ménage à trois with an SKS and an AK. It's my go to for fun at the range. It's a keeper for me!
