Type 97 Full Monty disassembly & field stripping for cleaning. EMEI QBZ-95 bullpup rifle Gen 1, 2, 3

[@almazora]

Detailed and informative. A good reference specially for those fieldstripping and cleaning their firearms, and also for those generally wanting to know inner workings of those items. Keep 'em coming.

[@gnutzguy]

glad to hear im on the right track.... thanks.

[@Greentangle]

Type 97’s bolt is originated from FNC's 3 locking lugs bolt. The bolt carrier cam and curve guide are very interesting，since there is no rotation movement for the bolt during the charging procedure unlike the AR/G36. It is called anti pre engagement which is very helpful for reliability.

[@gnutzguy]

yup, more like FNC but with striker system.

[@blackcatpack]

Both FNC and QBZ95’s bolt carrier are come from Kalashnikov’s “flat surface rotation guide”(anyway this is what Chinese textbook calls it and my automatic weapon knowledge are learned in Chinese language so you guys might have different noun for it) The mainly changes that FN did to original AK was adding one extra locking lug, and moved rotation guide lug behind the locking lug. (AK’s is monolith with main locking lug) which made barrel trunnion’s size slightly reduced. And FNC centered the point where bolt carrier and trunnion engage. So it was like AUG gives Engineers confidence on Bullpup rifle (AUG gets highest score overall in the experiment test than all other rifle’s like FAMAS, SA80, FNC, M16 etc.) but FNC is the best choice for economic reason and factory workers are easier to get used to produce this new rifle based on their experience with AK)

[@Greentangle]

@@blackcatpack Lateral/Plane guide drive might be more accurate. It is a little change for type 95 change FNC's long stoke driven piston. After finding Robinson XCR's bolt & bolt carrier design, I think it better than Type 95 and FNC.

[@Greentangle]

@@gnutzguy It is not a good striker design, makes trigger pulling worse, also the structure design is not solid.

[@gnutzguy]

@@Greentangle is there a good striker design out there? personally, i dont like them but the advantage were its slimmer, way slimmer than my tavor.

[@robertpatterson9281]

I appreciate the very informative info, but would be nice to have the disassembly actions within view, rather than looking at the pieces on the table.

[@JavedIKQ]

Very informative video . Nice 👍

[@JavedIKQ]

Very nice and complete information

[@gnutzguy]

thanks... nice to hear.

[@JavedIKQ]

@@gnutzguy sir what is the difference between gen2 and gen3 ?

[@gnutzguy]

@@JavedIKQ not much, just the rail.

[@gnutzguy]

@@kirigaiakaruto3230 yup, bolt and fcg coming up soon.

[@kamsankowski6341]

The firing pin doesn't come out of the bolt?

[@gnutzguy]

bolt and fcg disassembly coming soon.

[@kamsankowski6341]

Like always. Best channel to go for best breakdowns.

[@chengeorge5751]

Great video！ Which type of Allen wrench did you use to lose the charging handle? That bothered me for a long time.

[@gnutzguy]

If I recall it's not Allen but a torx screw, lol

[@chengeorge5751]

@@gnutzguy So an Allen wouldn't work? What type of torx screw is that

[@leoli4317]

Your video proves that there is No plastic parts in type 97.

[@gnutzguy]

and your point is?

[@aliwehbe6670]

Can you potentially cut off the flash hider and bring the rifle somewhere to get threaded?

[@gnutzguy]

Yup, I have seen pics of new muzzle devices on them.

[@jckl308]

Are the T97 Magazine catches compatible with ar15 magazine catches? Thinking about getting an ambi release for my gen 1

[@gnutzguy]

Give me a few days to try that out cos I'm curious.

[@gnutzguy]

no, they are not. t97 is much longer.

[@zwayne5143]

When I disassembled my gun today, I lost the tiny spring from bho. 😢 Is that possible I can find the spare part for that? So sad

[@gnutzguy]

Oh nooooo, I dunno any.

[@jay-firstofhisname]

You need to back your camera up or zoom out a bit. You do most of the disassembly outside of the frame and it would be nice seeing what you are doing

[@gnutzguy]

yeah, i dont believe in showing you every single step. you should be able to figure it out when it out of frames. its not that complicated.

[@Trooper599]

Why doesn't anyone ever take apart the bolt?

[@gnutzguy]

you mean this? lol. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqauk4ejm9Oahbc

[@fattonyd232]

Any quality issues between the 3 models?

[@gnutzguy]

Manufacturing quality? None but functioning issue? Yes, with gen1 .... feeding.

[@anthonyconway3643]

Yeah my gen 3 if I slap the but of the rifle it sends the bolt into battery

[@gegervary]

Does anyone know where I could find a gas piston/regulator spring? Can't seem to find any. Otherwise would someone be kind enough to measure the length and width? Thank you!

[@Trooper599]

That's what she said.... Humor aside, you won't be able to find spare parts for this rifle anywhere in Canada. Do what most people do (since they're so cheap). Buy one to use, and one for spare parts. That's the closest you're going to get unfortunately..

[@humansvd3269]

American here, I really want a first gen Type 97. A really shame we can't get these. We got a 12 versionish imported somehow. I collect a lot of military stuff abd have a decent amount of modern PLA gear. A 97 would complete that.

[@gnutzguy]

for sure a T97 would be a great addition so would be the T81 & T81 LMG. btw, whats 12 versionish?

[@humansvd3269]

@@gnutzguy A 12 gauge type 97 was imported into the US.

[@humansvd3269]

@Wookie Boy I have those, I want one for myself for the collection factor.

[@gnutzguy]

i never knew there was such a thing. i just learned something new today. i would love to make a trade with you.

[@humansvd3269]

@@gnutzguy it floated relatively under the radar here. We can only get sporting shotguns from China. I would love to make a trade but Canada wouldn't allow it sadly. I'd be happy to take that gen 1 type 97.

[@christiangibbs.mp4]

are you interested in selling your type 97?

[@gnutzguy]

sorry, i dont sell.

[@scottbuckley6578]

My new gen 2 gas piston wouldn't drop out like yours

[@gnutzguy]

do you mean you have to pry it out with a tool?

[@MorningMotivationChannel]

Same How did you get it out

[@gnutzguy]

@@MorningMotivationChannel I already showed you in the vid how I got the gas piston out.

[@MorningMotivationChannel]

@@gnutzguy yes I watched. The piston did not drop out as shown in video. I had to remove the rail and push it out with a punch from behind , was stuck inside

[@gnutzguy]

@@MorningMotivationChannel check the piston is not damage, bent or burr then clean the tube thoroughly with a wire shotgun brush.

[@anthonyconway3643]

Nice video

[@gnutzguy]

Thanks

[@maximusdecimusmeridius2120]

do a cold weather test !

[@gnutzguy]

it doesnt really get that cold in vancouver, lol.

[@AERSKALFA_]

Oh man… I regretted watching it field stripped. Type 97 was such a industrial disaster… Basically they just bullpupped the AK and cover it up with a fancy skin. Another mark for AUG.

[@gnutzguy]

but aug is not an option in canada. we do with what we have.

might as well just upload an mp3 file lmao you cant even see it
