Thought you guys might get a kick out of this guys Norinco WAS a under-folder i was playing around with in West Africa. I see a lot of "L" "D" markings for the selector but not many with the Chinese symbols.

I had a few military guys on a flight and noticed their Type 56 spikers had immaculate wood, i asked them and they said they just got issued brand new Type 56 full stock spikers. Seems non have threaded barrels though.

Even beat up like that, an AK is still a beautiful rifle.

Cool with the Chinese markings.

Thanks for sharing those pictures of a rifle that we who have the right to keep and bear arms that shall not be infringed, can't own.

Funny that the stock was cut off instead of just closed or even removed.

And I thought it was an "American Thing" to spray paint the wood black!

That just shows the durability of the AK-47. Try that with an AR!

Granted it is off topic, but until today I never knew the King Air could be had with tip-tanks. Learned something new today!
