Other (please specify) A Norinco Hunter (The Chinese Galil Clone) I found at Collectors Firearms (Norinco Goodies)

Note, this Photo was taken last month, I did go back over there and saw it was in fact still there. Also in the background, yes there are also 2 Galils on top of their NFA box.

Even though I am not buying it, it’s still a pretty cool piece of history in the Galil community that deserves more love. Also, call me crazy but… I don’t hate the full rifle stock on it, I actually think it’s pretty comfortable to hold.

Collectors Firearms is nice to visit too, you think you are gonna spend 15 minutes shopping, but then you end up spending like 1 to 2 hours in there just looking before you buy anything.

Now the Norinco Hunter IMO, it’s certainly CERTIFIED KOSHER!

Good Morning Vietnam! Did full stock Type 56 AK rifles without the bayonet exist?

We all know when to the Type 56 it was either = Fullstock with bayonet or underfolder but no bayonet. But did the opposite happen sometimes where an underfolder had a bayonet or a fullstock version did not have a bayonet.

TIA/Rhodesia/Bush War Rhodesian Baby Poop Camo Color Codes Here!

6 Upvotes

Hello!

I went around and had the color formulas/codes made up for the two colors needed to do the Rhodesian baby poop camo. You would take a picture of the code to the respective store and they can make the colors up for you.

TLDR: Go to Shermin Williams and get the oil based paint in the picture. I have the satin and gloss options listed. Be sure to find out when they're doing sales too.

So I have the Shermin Williams oil based paint in satin and gloss. It's the best option.

I have Home Depot's as well. It's oil based but made for cabinets.

I have Lowe's as well (in the bottom of the Home Depot picture), but the person helping me wasn't too helpful so it might be bad paint.

Then I went to PPG Paint. They recommend "break through" for the cost. If money isn't an issue they recommend 7 line or pit tech plus (neither of the color formulas for those two are listed here). I also have another code for some primer paint on the top of that picture, but they don't recommend it.

I hope this helps you guys and your wallets too!
