Title: Help identifying this one
Post by: MikeT on April 04, 2025, 04:37:32 PM
I don’t think it’s rare, but I haven’t come across one personally. It’s factory 306 and it has a pinned barrel. Anything of significance with this? Should I be looking for anything else on this?

One of those cottage arsenal guns. Seems to have a nice fit, PX

Chinese Type 56 Arsenal 306 1.6 million SN 1971 build. In the early '70s, some of the newer, low volume, arsenals dropped a digit off the front of the SN to save a little time in the built process.
