<div data-cycle-hash="swjf16-chn-81" data-cycle-desc="The Type 81 uses a short-stroke gas piston above the barrel and a rotating bolt lock. The gas system features a three-position manual gas regulator with a cutoff position necessary to launch rifle grenades from the muzzle. The receiver is made from stamped steel, and the furniture is wood or plastic. The rifle features an internal bolt-hold-open device and uses the same magazines as the Type 63. The safety selector is located on the left side of the receiver. The standard rifle features a fixed shoulder stock, while the Type 81-1 features a side-folding shoulder stock made from stamped steel and fitted with unusual plastic covers that serve as a rudimentary cheek rest and a rear grip for bayonet thrusts." data-cycle-overlay-template="{{desc}}“>
