PLA Small arms

If the PLA remembers to teach soldiers to load ammunition while the bolt is open, otherwise they'll end up like this guy in the video, struggling with the powerful spring that loads 12-gauge.

a group of so-called gun enthusiasts on X thinking the special effects covering the serial number for the receiver deforming, making me wonder whether these guy or baboons are smarter.
Some guy have already pointed out that he needs the bolt open when loading, but he deliberately didn't do that.

Hey guys I know its late for this but I wanna ask about the QTS-11's performance. As far as I know, the PLA only really used it in the Gulf of Aden. How did it go? Anything I should know about?

PLA was never truly used it; it was basically relegated to storage after a small-batch testing phase. Like other OICW systems, it was far too cumbersome.

Considering the size, yeah I can see why. But do you think this idea of OICW can be revived with exoskeleton technology on the rise?

I think the first product of such revival will be the Boltgun

I mean, the light weight high-velocity grenade launcher.

High-velocity GL test prototype, Option A.

Specifications require a muzzle velocity of 450 m/s and a maximum instantaneous recoil of less than 3500 N. Option A uses floating launch technology, muzzle velocity 441 m/s with a normal launch recoil of 2500 N. Option B is essentially a recoilless gun, with a recoil of only 1200 N.
