For being out of business for years, It is interesting that I just got my new Polytech Camo M14 icon

last Wednesday and about 1000 shipped into Canada icon

in the past while or on their way... High Quality of the new Polytech's are unbelievable...

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Just my $0.02.

Got my New Poly M14 - Headspace is 1.638" = Excellent. A new M1A icon

(right beside mine) had headspace was 1.640 to 1.641 - still within NATO spec. As for other deficiencies, mine required .006" shim at gas block. That's it.

Paid $550.00 Cdn for it vs $2,200 Cdn for M1A. Not shooting match, so nothing else necessary. It is a fantastic rifle. And seems eager to eat reasonable reloads. So for those whom are giving consideration to a chicom rifle. Don't buy one, BUY TWO for way less than M1A.

Cheers

I have owned polytechs,Norincos, no issues one of my norincos has over 5000 rds with no issues. some bolts were soft no all of them. lots of biased BS. just my 2 cents. Tim

I have both Norinco and Polytech M14S rifles - all of them were BETTER than the M1A icon

in terms of receiver machining and geometry. SEI seems to like them for builds - that can't be a bad thing.

I have a polytech and I'm very happy with it. I have a fulton armory build and I'm having troubles with it. and the poly had a better trigger. "O" all the part in the fulton armory are TRW parts. (triggeer housing group, barrel, op; rod. etc.

My experience with Chinese weapons and ammunition has been, if issue, it's as good as it gets. If commercial still good. my weapons of choice is SKS and TT 33, Chinese issue. Gary
