**TYPE 81 7.62x39 Service Rifle** ~IN STOCK -NOW AVAILABLE!!!

[f55]

anybody receive their rifle with scratches on it? mine has a good sized one on the stock.

Yes, the extra wood for the folder has a scratch that's about half inch long

 

[Armed Hippie]

Is it a barrel/receiver misalignment or is it a stock/receiver misalignment? Seen photos of both.

The barrel and receiver are misaligned, the stock might be a bit as well.

So my type 81 showed up and it's bent. I heard this was an issue before... is it safe to fire? Anyone else from the second shipment have this issue? It's a full wood btw.

Fixed or folder? Pretty sure I haven't read of any fixed having this issue yet, I could be wrong.

Finally got mine - folder, 3 magazines and sling. Looks as straight as they come , Thanks TI!!
Had to wait a day to go pick it up at the post office, missed the door delivery.

I heard they put over a pot hole and drove over it and everybody laughed and laughed. But seriously that sucks

My order arrived complete last Monday and I couldn't be happier.

The shipper for TI missed sending out some of the pre order bonus slings. I am getting mine mailed out and there may be others as well.
Rifle is otherwise as good as it gets. All the mags fit and function as they should.

Is this worth the price difference over an sks?

Was she a fixed or folder..?

I bought a wr7.62 for 1299+ tax. Love the #### out of it. Can't wait to get this t81, I shoulda pre ordered a folder to I was just skeptical about all these "bent" ones I've read about.

 

[Fortress]

Bent or not I never even checked I just blasted rounds outa it. It was a little more Chinese then I was hoping, really ugly heavy and loose, but I'm happy to have it for my collection..... If I could only have one it would be AR or VZ long before this one lol.

Picked my T81 up at the post office today, got all my mags and sling too. Looks straight enough to my eye, really like it so far. Shout out to Nadine at TI for the fast email responses to when I needed to change my shipping address, thanks for the help.

Deprived what your criteria is. My criteria was that it was a commie bullet hose that looks a lot like an AK47

Sks is 1/4 the price, can be better quality, milled receiver, better sights, much better sling, faster to reload, and just as reliable as the T81.

BUT the T81 is cooler and better for the zombie apocalypse. That being said, I bought one.

Contact TI and ask them how much it has to be out before they consider it defective and will replace it. Then measure it to make sure it meets that standard, elsewise you'll just waste your shipping sending it back.

These are not precision rifles and some degree of misalignment is considered acceptable in a mass-produced cheap stamped receiver rifle. C'est la vie.

FWIW, unless you plan to mount a receiver scope, it's won't affect function - all the sight parts are on the barrel, which is likely straight.
