You guys are the lucky ones, I ordered within days of it going pre-sale and I don't even have a shipping date yet and my purchase is still listed deposit received.
And if you are wondering, I would expect the earliest of purchases the individuals waiting for the longest to get thei rifles first. Maybe even in the first quarter, but definitely not last.

Not always true. I ordered first day and got my tracking on the 9th
 
Great 5 MOM gun. minute of man

What exactly were you expecting from it for accuracy?


I have yet to see a group posted by anyone that can do better than 6moa with their VZ or SKS.

Not sure why so many average shooters are posting groups, but. I will say, I can typically shoot 4 moa or less from a rest with an SKS and 10 round groups. I shoot a lot with irons though.

When I get mine, I'll post what I can manage.

I'm looking forward to seeing pics of your targets. I was hoping to get mine out in the yard again today but the inlaws were leaving and drug me into the city for lunch and I can't say no to free food :p
I took some vacation and am off till the 24th so will keep practicing with it and hopefully I can get used to these sights. I'll print off some larger targets and put them out further and see if that helps.

Was there a description of why the top bar is on the rear sight? is it supposed to be used for ranging or something? I was considering removing it but don't want to touch it till I give it a fair chance to get used to it.

I've been carrying mine on the supplied sling across my back while walking the dogs the last few days and it's pretty comfortable with the muzzle behind your right hip and stock behind your left shoulder.

Sorry, no fresh pics today.

Bar is for rifle grenade afaik
 
I can't believe how selfish everyone is acting, me me me me me. My thoughts are with the, apparently, one worker who is doing all the shipping, he's pumping out about 4/hour for each 8 hour shift so I'm very concerned he might be over doing it a little. I would suggest using up that vacation time before you work yourself sick.

HAHA, that is funny!
This shipping thing is a joke. There is no reason that with a little extra staff that 200-400 rifle could not be sent out per day. A basic spreadsheet a couple packers and labelers and one should be going out every 3-5 minutes. I believe it is called an assembly line, henry Ford perfected it on Dec. 1, 1913. It not like TI didnt have the time to set up a spread sheet for order and prepare mailing labels.
I have seen church rummage sales and stuffing food for the needy boxes more efficient than this. The food works like this, two adults, one kides= a large box, 4 cans of tuna (the mags), one bag of pasta (the sling) One toy fr the kid (the rifle) put it all in the box, tape it, label it sending off to Billy-Joe and Bobby-Sue
 
With a magnified optic, good ammo, a Tigger job and a rest, Based on all the hype I'm expecting 1-2moa from my T81. Realistically I'm expecting 2-3moa, and anything greater than that I'm outright disappointed andwill probably submit the gun to be chopped before the disease spreads to my other Combloc guns.
 
Haven't said much, but just as a benchmark, I ordered a fixed stock on March 21 2016, thought I ordered 12 mags, just double checked and I only got 10 total (8 in addition). Two separate mag orders were added to original order. Also between then and now my pal became an rpal so the number changed from .0001 to .0003...no shipping notice as of yet...not #####ing, just sayin'...

The top bar is used in aiming rifle grenades. I doubt anyone here will use it.
 
My tracking shows my rifle left Calgary this past Thursday. Hoping for a Tuesday delivery? Expected delivery date according to cp is oct.23/2017 lol ... so

I have found in the past for the most part CP delivers 1 day before the scheduled date
Mind you long week ends or Xmas rushes can change that.
 
I've asked this before but, does anyone who has their type 81 have an AK mag charger? Would like to know if it works...not that bombing 5 rounds into a mag is particularly strenuous.
