    Default Norinco Type 56 Mods - Advice needed for do's and dont's

    Wonder if you guys can possibly advise me with some do's and don'ts with regards to modifying a Norinco Type 56 or perhaps provide an idea or example of what you did to yours?

    Is it advisable/possible to get the barrel threaded in order to add a muzzle break?

    Will the ATI Body Kit (like the ones that GI Combat Supplies stock) work on the Type 56?

    Can you detach and later re-attach the pig sticker?

    I don't want to turn it into a tacti-cool thing, but just a mod here or there to make it a bit more "unique".

    Will appreciate any advice or suggestions that you might have to offer.

    Do shoot it a lot. Don't do anything until you have.

    After that you will know what needs changing if any.

    Fab defense has grips available, and a break is recommended, not that it does much :)

    apparently the fab defence front set doesnt fit. i went to pick it up yesterday at rescomp and was advised that it probably wont fit.
    i am just going to machine a slim and hopefully pretty custom one for mine.....
    ergo grip
    custom folding stock setup.

    If I were to drop some loot on a Norinco I would go for a longer rail up front and a muzzle brake/comp. That's after the optics, mags and ammo.
