Are these photos of the 191 series with Western optics from SWAT teams/private trainers?
QBZ-191 service rifle family

Elite Marine Corps, Airborne, and SOF units have been seen with Aimpoint, EOtech and Holosun (if you consider it a "western" brand) optics / accessories during training in recent months, but those are pretty much only cases western optics are used in the PLA. Everything else is either SWAT, trainers or some random larper who managed get his hands on a 191 training / demonstrator gun
No，This was purchased by members of PAP's special forces themselves

Typically a "very westernized loadout" would be associated with PAP spec-op element, police SWAT of those richer cities, and private trainers hired to train PLA spec-op and those above mentioned outfit.
Of note, PLA typically have standard issue gear and at most, Holosun accessories; PAP and police SWAT are under LEO classification so often seen them fitted out with the likes of Aimpoint and EoTech stuff.
The gun he hold is a plastic model.A training rifle with a non-standard different buttstock. The person in the photo is a PLA sergeant and an experienced parachutist.
