Type-81 pictures, range reports, and modifications thread

TI said all T81 came from one production in 2017 , they were stored at the factory so how come the latest shipment has a 2019 stamped as the serial number? That's weird.

Take vendor claims with a grain of salt. I wouldn't be surprised if the T81 made a "miraculous" comeback

Lol. Unless I misread their post.

QUOTE=Tactical Imports;16757979]Type 81 is produced in State Arms factory. We were told they are all moving to full capacity production of new service rifle at end of year, all export projects will be on hold until rearmament is complete. Afterwards there will be a surplus of Type 95/03 rifles which will assumeably be passed down to reserve units, making Type 81 obsolete for government use. Type 81 never had strong export sales due to the double price over AK, was mostly internal demand. We were lucky we even got the production we did back in 2017. If everyone remembers we had a single production run and have been storing units at the factory, taking inventory from this storage over time. This is the last of that storage from the original production run[/QUOTE]
 
I got a type 81 folder from tactical import before they are gone for good, am tall so the folding stock is not very good for me ,i watch a video on how to change the stock to a zukov ak-47 stock looked amazing so I ordered one but the video is for a full stock replacement anybody ever remove the folding stock completely and can you tell me how you did it, on the full stock I know you have to drill the 2 rivets but they are not there on the folding stock version, thanks for your help
 
When I first got mine the bolt was jammed and I heard something loose in there. I shook it a bit and this little nut fell out - it looks like the one that secures the pistol grip from inside the lower receiver but that nut is still there secured in place... seeking advice from you experts as to what this piece is for... Or is it an extra nut left in there by mistake? TIA

Thought I would share my T81 with custom wood stock and hand grip - I also made the other parts too. The grip is a little longer and the stock is too. I just got the rifle when COVID isolation started and I haven't even fired it yet!

wow wow what color is it? Cherry?
 
I’m not sure what to call it....It was a mix of two water-based stains that I had leftover at home. One was a custom colour mix similar to dark cherry and the other was some leftover “provincial”. I really like the blend.
