Only a matter of time now before we get a clip of it being fired.

I think the deluge of pictures we received of this rifle over the last 24-36 hours shows just how well under wraps the PLA kept it.

Could you give me the guys Weihao account id like to see a clip of the gun being tested and more news from it

We don't have video if it being fired yet, what I said was that it was a matter of time until it was released.

Just follow this thread, the pictures are coming from different and random sources and they will be posted here.

The first image is a larger version of a previously shared photo, which shows the designated marksman variant.

I love the mini tripod that extends out of the vertical grip, ingenious.

grip pods have been around for quite a while now, since like the early to mid 2000s from the US grip pod company.


But integrating a laser/torch into it is somewhat new which I haven't seen before, though that might just be me.

Some more.

These pictures show the rifle using the old magazine.
The rifles shown at the parade (like the high quality pic in #138) seems to use a different magazine. Still for the same ammunition I'm sure, but it seems like it's designed to be able to accommodate different mags

it can fit the 95-1 mags (why not all 95; is there a different type of mags between the 95 and 95-1?) and also has window that allows users to check the remaining ammo inside the mag

yes, see here 95 vs. 95-1

增设空仓挂机装置,因此也同时改进了弹匣的托弹板(但据说旧弹匣仍可通用,只是用旧弹匣时不能挂机),并在弹匣卡笋后面增加空仓挂机解脱按钮。

The weibo post said
这个弹匣是新弹匣,托弹板设计有醒目的彩色,可以通过余弹观察窗观察到。当然,相比95-1的弹匣,新弹匣的材料和工艺都有全面的优化提升。同时,新枪全面适配95-1的弹匣,降低装备成本。

New rifle is fully compatible with 95-1 mag. It does not say it can not accept 95 mag. I think it is just like 95-1 which can use both 95 and 95-1 mag but using 95 mag will disable the function of 空仓挂机 (what is it in English?) because the 95 mag lacks a release button.

Bolt hold-open.

I can't be the only one a bit miffed that the PLA went from bullpup to conventional. Why do that when bullpups have a clear compactness advantage and whatever ergonomic issues are addressable?
