Type 81 scope mounts or bayonet

[1bigrn]

Any thought if bringing in bayonets or scope mounts/ rails for type 81 ' s?

I'm hoping a canadian company will make scope mounts and rails for t81's once they are here in canada

There are several excellent Canadian companies that could make some really nice rail systems for these rifles and Mlok or quad rail or even keymod I suppose although I think that's kind of dying off. Hopefully they borrow from popular designs in the states for AK rifles (talking hoe the two halves lock together) and don't create some archaic bulky heavy rail that requires 30 screws to hold together plus some tie wire. It would be cool if they were able to get in some of the Chinese rails for the type 81 but they do look pretty bulky and heavy.

Somebody will step up, no doubt...

I would prefer the rail and bayonet to come from China. I'm sure both are available at chinese pricing. Hopefully the same product that would have been issued with rifle.
A canadian manufacturer is a great idea but high pricing tends to keep it out of the hands of most. A $999 gun doesn't justify a $300 bayonet and $300 mount. Let's see TI line them up direct from China at appropriate pricing.

Any polymer or aftermarket type furniture for the 81 anywhere?
I've seen some pics on the inter web of some nice lookers...

I want a magwell adapter for 10 round goodness!

Hopefully the type 81's come with a rail mount already riveted onto the receiver, similar to AK's .. I'd rather a side mount optic option for rigidity.

Could probably just drill and tap for a regular AK side mount. Mounts that are integrated into the dust cover or gas tube typically suck for anything other than a red dot.

That might interfere with the selector switch though. Type 81 has a thumb safety on the left side.

So probably no companies offering straight up adds for the 81 then eh??

http://www.centerfiresystems.com/AK-PSRB-2.aspx I picked up a couple of these side mount plates. Pretty skookum looking plates.

When l get one in to look at l will consider the possibility of making accessories for it.

 

[dracconian]

MagWedge could you look at a rail for a side mounted light?

 

[ACEPS]

I'll would keep an eye on m14.ca/t97.ca to see if they'll make any accessories.
Majority of the Chinese scope rails that I've seen attach to a lower hand guard rail.

I had a quick chat with one of the TI guys at the sportsmen show a few months back about rails. They had a sample on site of one they mentioned they were looking at bringing in or alternatively working with someone to produce something to fit the 81.

Just wondering if anything further happened on this front?

Secondly, the Chinese military issue rails? Are they compatible with the SA variant? Are they an option for import by TI?

Looking forward to shooting this rifle, thanks TI for the recent production updates!

TI is bringing in a quad rail straight from polytech.

TI is bringing in a quad rail straight from polytech.

Yup it's up on our website, priced at just 199.

Again once we have a sample rifle we will consider that.

The patent for our rail design has been approved and that includes the side rail attachment.

Sounds great. Will this be a receiver side mount or a top cover mount?
