An Interesting Note on Chinese PLA Weapons
From Kris @ Combat Studies Group. If you’re of the mindset that China is not a) the major threat to the US and b) going to invite themselves in through their installed political proxies during the next phase in this manufactured crisis, you’re 100% wrong. Further, like all successful armies, they’ve sought to take advantage of the logistics questions for a future occupation. You should be training like your life depends on it, because it indeed does. -NCS
So what is the Chinese PLA sporting these days for their standard issue rifles?
The QBZ-95 and variants (top picture) is the standard issue assault rifle for the PLA. Manufactured by Norinco (remember, all those cheap import AK and M1A clones back in the 90’s?) it fires the 5.8x42mm cartridge…..they also have a variant that fires the 5.56 NATO cartridge, the QBZ-97. Below that is the M99 anti-material rifle which fires a 12.7x108mm cartridge…..this also has a variant that fires the US .50BMG cartridge.
See a pattern here?

Readers of AP can hardly be expected to land in the “surprised” seats.
On our feet, on our knees, each to their own destiny.

This lays in line with what I’ve been telling people about with the strategic land purchases here in CONUS (Texas, Ok, Washington state, etc) by the CCP and the CCP business fronts managing so many US ports and the Panama Canal.
FWIW, China is also one of the largest contributors of manpower to UN peacekeeping missions in African countries as well. If you type into youtube, “China UN peacekeepers” you’ll see all the videos. Everything from troops to police. Scout mentioned this once, but I went looking into it and it was interesting to see how pervasive it is.
They’re getting logistics and force projection training for their future mission.
The future mission is surely going to be discussed in the meeting between Xi and his employee when they meet this week.
Guess where they currently are?
With others like the Azerbaijani’s?
I’ll give you one wild guess and it rhymes with Laughghanistan
The industrial/ corporate/ technological creation of China is on America. There will alway be an Egypt before a promised land. And no man knows freedom until they experience slavery. America as a country is beginning to feel what it’s like to be humbled.
Those standing on the Rock (of a foundation) will know what to do from their knees and the trees.
China is the world’s biggest copycat thief of intellectual property. They’ll have their assets crawling SHOT show in a few months trying to finger fuck shit to rip off. Sure, it’s for airsoft today, but they could start churning out M4’s easily.
They already do, Norinco makes an M16 copy called the CQ, can’t remember the name but there’s almost certainly a carbine variant.
I think the PLA’s weaponry is a minor issue at this late date. Covid was a biological attack, we are at war, assume any invasion will launch from both Canada and Mexico supported by logistics drops from the container ships being held off-shore in Long Beach. Personally, I think we’ve been sold out by both our state and federal governments who will try and assist the invaders by shutting down the grid and not reporting the kinetic action until it’s too late. I used to be a conspiracy nut until all the conspiracy’s started coming true.
Do you know what the term “Assassin’s Mace” means without googling it? If not, you should be extra worried about Chinese Weapons Tech.
