No I do not and that is why I am asking as I thought QBZ-191 came with optics as standard.

PS: Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. That and fart jokes.

Asking a question where the answer is in the picture does not engender patience.

Next time, feel free to write out a longer question with a premise to articulate what you really want to know.

For example "none of them seem to be equipped with an optic on their 191, why is that? I believed that 191s all came with optics as standard, or is this not the case?"

How was I supposed to answer a question that you never asked? If you want to ask something, just ask. Spell it out directly and don't beat around the bush, resort to allusions, or make me guess what your implied question is.

I'm not a mind reader.

P.S. My original reply wasn't sarcasm at all, but thanks for letting me know that you tend to see offensive snark where there is none.

None of them have the optical sights?
I really don't know why this is. I think there are trust issues with the optics, hence they stick with reliable irons except in few instances. I remember in last years Ladakh situation, even troops deployed to supposedly respond to possible Indian attack were equipped with latest gear but still using iron sights. Granted they were still using qbz-95's but judging by export type 97 there aren't issues with optics losing zero or whatever, just feel awkward cuz you gotta hold your head higher.

What trust issues did you hear about? As for the awkwardness, that would make sense given that cheek welds aren’t standard issue equipment.
