Meanwhile, in China.

so they have blued bolt vs chromed/ss bolt, wood furniture vs polymer furniture

When these get here, it will be interesting to see what optic mount options we see developed....maybe front handguard rail like the NEA/Corwin/BC tactical upper front VZ rails?

I'm thinking side rail will work best with these as they appear to eject 3 o clock.

That is a copy. Not real thing

Eh, technically these guns are a copy and not the real thing. I probably would get one for S+G if they fit.

The Type 97 came to market without bayonet lugs when the demo models had them, you might not be able to mount it anyway.

Can you elaborate? Aside from the blued blade, they look pretty similar to others I have seen. Genuinely curious as to what gives it away.

Hang in there people...

Only a few weeks and then we'll "hopefully" get a tiny bit of information about our order.

Hopefully...

 

[Dad003]

Hopefully these land this year. I want one since the days those were mentioned to go in the lab. They took a long time.

 

[Deathrawt]

yeah hopefully by mid July we will hear something from TI about the state of these

This thread is starting to take on the legendary qualities of the Mall ninja thread long time ago in CGN lore.

Ya, I bet it is even made in China of Chinese metal and cheap communist labor. Just like the original and the entire rifle.

yea but is it made to be a show piece or to do actual bayonet things?

 

[Mosin Nagant]

Good for you, never pay up front for anything these days. That company could go broke. The VZ58 is a better rifle anyway. So is the SKS.

And you know this... How?

 

[VanIsleCam]

Yeah good point; however its not really an issue of performance at this point but availability. I foresee some of the other site sponsors moving in if TA can't make the first batch happen. The rifle is FRT cleared so it's time.

Sorry - rifle or carbine or semi - A whatever you want to call it.
