Type-81 pictures, range reports, and modifications thread

I believe the t81 has a 475mm barrel though doesnt it? So you could only cut it to 470 or 471 to leave a little wiggle room.

hes talking about cutting the lmg and its about 520mm or 20.5" .

 

[Curtton]

I think I am going to cut my lmg to 18.6 and thread it m14x1 RH.

yup, 18.6" is good.

what about the chrome lined bore. would it flake and crack?

 

[id64]

looks like the barrel needs to be sized down pass the cleaning rod clamp to fit front sight. OD at front is 0.66 and after clamp is 0.77. Need to find annular cutter now.

Or a friend with a lathe.

I’ve done a few reversible mods including modding a AK Bakelite grip to fit also a homemade cut down dong (shark fin)grip and upper handguard next will be removing the grenade launcher and threading for a ak brake
Also don’t mind the washer and screw hanging out new screws on order

yes, but that will require removing the barrel out of the receiver....

Unless they have a hollow spindle bore lathe. I wish CNC warrior would ship there muzzle threading kits up here to Canada.

Simple pinch lock, with backstop. It'll work, yeah. Do you mean the BP-02 sidemount when you say Belarus system?

now that russia and belarus are 2 different countries the russian do not like anymore belarus product. the one i purchased got that reference for vepr and tigr and ak47 mount so will see how it goes.

Lower handguard is a vz 58 polymer handguard and the gas tube cover is just the wood one with grip tape on it
The stock is a magpul UBR

a tabuk and you will be golden.

 

[id64]

All this talk about Tabuk inspired me to change config a bit. Will take it to the long range shortly to report accuracy

People actually shoot these? I thought all the Type-81's in Canada were on the forums being sold by douche canoes trying to flip them for a profit..?!
