M4 is not M14....

I don't feel like reading this thread cause it's late, I'm tired, and I've got allergies.


Is a non rest type 97 going to be coming in? If yes, then when and how much?

 

[Dimitri]

From the looks of it they may come in at 800$ or so I think.

Has this been confirmed by one of the actual businesses bringing them in, Type-97's at $800'ish or is this just topic drift after so many pages? And like the man asked, when?

Remember the Norinco ship heading South Africa but was denied there?

CNN reported some Canadians boarded the ship after.

Currently the ship is heading China, however, loaded with beer instead of weapons....

 

[Deckard]

There have been "overtures" that the $800ish is possible, but to avoid flaming, expect that there will be no real news until they actually arrive.

Wasn't he one of the guys smacking around the protesters during the torch run???

 

[aninchlow]

no he was the one shooting the tibetan's off camera that didn't want to smile and say "china good, we all happy."

 

[michaelsabre]

Don't know who's the guy on pic but don't like political topic in this thread.

 

[suprathepeg]

Don't get me wrong I'll buy their gun just don't want their "special security personel" in my country.

don't worry, it's not gonna happen.

 

[suprathepeg]

I hope not but just in case I'm gonna continue to buy their guns.

 

[Deckard]

Woot. You missed one.

Thanks. But vid3 is questionable. First it says that the new round is more powerful than both 5.45mm and 5.56mm. Then the soldier says an AK-47 (type 56) is not an AK-47, but a 74.

he compares the weight of these rifles, actually AK-47(4.3kg) is heavier than AK-74(3.5kg), and type 95 weights only 3.25kg.

Thats the official word from the Chinese goverment. That their new round is better then both the Russian and NATO rounds in performance.

Well, he's gotta justify his R&D budget somehow

 

[Dimitri]

I know this sounds crazy but I'd pay 2,000$ for a Type 88 in the 5.8mm Chinese with a case of ammo. Would have to save it up first, but should be able to do that in under a year if I got word on how to get one.
