Type 56 vs the AKM
What's the reason why the Chinese went with a 1.5mm reciever instead of a 1mm like the AKM? Cheap steel? More durability?

The little 5.56x45 will get blown around by the wind more then the 7.62x51 will, which is one reason why it's not used by snipers. Against barriers, the 7.62x51 will tear through trees and concrete...

I think modern technology could negate most of the issues with the 7.62x51 cartridge. Mind you that almost all the loadings of the 7.62x51 haven't changed since the 1950's. It was never looked into...

That barrel is way too short. I imagine they shoot cartridges with reduced powder charges because shooting a full powered 7.62x51 in that would have a defening blast and recoil. I think a rifle...
