SOLD SOLD (15/11) Cold War / Vietnam War Era Chinese State Factory ‘66’ Type 56 (AK47 / AKMS) 7.62 x 39mm Calibre Assault Rifle With Folding Stock & Sling**EARLY UK 1995 DEACTIVATION, RE-ISSUED UK ONLY CERTIFICATED** D 1477 - D 1477 The Type 56 Automatic Rifle also known as the AK-56 is a Chinese 7.62×39mm rifle. It is a variant of the Soviet-designed AK-47 (specifically Type 3) and AKM rifles (with folding stock). Production started in 1956 at Chinese State Factory 66. During the Cold War period, the Type-56 was exported to many countries and guerrilla forces throughout the world. Many of these rifles found their way to battlefields in Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East and were used alongside other Kalashnikov pattern weapons from both the Soviet Union as well the Warsaw Pact nations of Eastern Europe. Chinese support for the Democratic Republic of Vietnam before the mid-1960s meant that the Type-56 was frequently encountered by American soldiers in the hands of either Vietcong guerrillas or PAVN soldiers during the Vietnam war. The Type-56 was discovered far more often than the original Russian-made AK-47s or AKMs. This is an excellent Chinese Type 56 with folding stock. It is serial number 17035033, has the triangle with ‘66’ inside mark of the Chinese Factory ‘66’, Type 56 designation and Chinese inspection mark.

It has a folding skeleton stock which operates as it should. Deactivated to early UK specification in 1995 the original 1995 certificate was lost at some point in its life and a UK only replacement certificate was issued in 2024. The weapon cocks and dry fires and the magazine can be removed. The price includes deactivation certificate and UK delivery. D 1477 (holster rig box)
