Could suggest it to the Tacturbosquad guys, and see if they are allowed to paint their new rifles, I think some of them might also lurk this forumMakes me wonder if the PLA will ever adopt a tan QBZ 191. Maybe in the gen. 2 if we're lucky.

Pardon me, but those DBP191 casings look brass-coloured to me. How would we be able to tell if it is steel?View attachment 86698
Looks like they're still using steel casing. Makes sense given how much ammunition they need to produce I guess.
Neck of cartridge is silver metallic. Just my observation though, so don't take it as confirmed information.Pardon me, but those DBP191 casings look brass-coloured to me. How would we be able to tell if it is steel?
These are brass casings. The silver coloration on the neck/upper portion of the casings are a result of a heat treat process called annealing. This process preserves the malleability of the casings and prevents them from becoming brittle. This is a very common practice in the ammunition reloading industry.View attachment 86698

Perhaps you're right. Low resolution image really doesn't help as it makes it look waaaay too shiny than it should be.These are brass casings.
