Stopped by the local flea market today, and lo and behold this was waiting on me..a trials 1953 Chinese Type 53. Date is '1953.9.' Non import marked. More than likely a Vietnam bring back, but no paperwork to prove it. Also looks like it may have a bit of 'shrapnel damage' to the wrist, but again, speculation. Anyway, couldn't leave it there, so here it is!
