	Chinese Type 56 Rifle, native built SKS
		The Chinese didn't begin manufacturing their version of the SKS until 1956, as seen from the Type designation, but they purchased quantities of the Russian original after the first year of the Korean War to re-arm their armies in more consistent and logistically supportable manner.
		The first Chinese SKS carbines were identical to their Soviet counterparts, and were adopted by the Peoples Republic of China as the Type 56 carbine.
		The earlier type is 9" in length and resembles a knife blade.

	Chinese Assault Rifles
		The original versions of the Type 56 were essentially almost exact copies of the AK-47, but with a permanently-mounted spike-type bayonet which folds under the barrel, instead of the cleaning rod normally carried under the barrel of the AK-47.
		The Type 63 is semiautomatic and gas-operated; the gas system is simple, not quite like that of the SKS, and not quite like that of the Type 56 assault rifle; but not exactly a blend of the two, either.
		Notes: The Type 81 was originally designed specifically for export, but was later produced in large numbers to become the Chinese Army’s primary assault rifle, replacing their aging Type 56 assault rifles.

		Aside from the usual teething problems when you introduce a new piece of ordnance (or any military gear for that matter) there was the fact that at the same time they introduced a new cartridge (the 5.8 mm) to go with it.
		When that person switches to the Type 95 rifle, he will experience typically more muzzle blast due to: 1) the choice of a magnum cartridge with more propellant, 2) the smaller calibre hence a higher operating pressure, and 3) the bull-pup layout, ensuring that the muzzle is much closer to his face.

		Although a bit of an anachronism, the SKS45 had broad appeal, and was adopted by many Communist Bloc nations, including East Germany (Karabiner-S), North Korea (Type 63 Carbine), Yugoslavia (M59/66 Rifle), and the PRC (Type 56 Carbine).
		The Communist Chinese, apparently not anticipating the need to engage in the sort of massive, armored infantry conflicts envisaged for potential European conflicts, were especially enthusiastic about the SKS.
		These are readily identified by the presence of a selector switch on the right side of the rifle, forward of the trigger, and by a gas regulator knob extending from the forward part of the gas cylinder.
