Chinese Type 80 (M80) PKM parts kit recovered from the battlefield in Syria. The Type 80 is the Chinese-manufactured copy of the Soviet PKM, adopted by the PLA in 1983 after Chinese forces encountered captured PKMs during the Sino-Vietnamese War of 1979. Exported in volume to operators across the Middle East, Asia, and Africa.

The 1994 U.S. import ban on Chinese-made firearms and parts permanently closed the supply chain. What's already in the country is what we have, and the inventory only goes one direction from here.

Specs:

  • Manufacturer: Norinco (China)
  • Pattern: Chinese Type 80 / export M80 - direct PKM copy
  • Caliber: 7.62x54R

What's in the kit (see photos for exact contents):

  • Bolt and bolt carrier

  • All receiver pieces from the demil - clean cuts, not torch-mangled
  • Demilled barrel stub for chamber/headspace reference
  • No barrel (available separately on request)

The parts drop onto a VLTOR semi-auto PKM receiver. The Type 80 shares geometry with Russian, Polish, and Hungarian kits, so VLTOR compatibility is confirmed. You'll need a 7.62x54R barrel - available separately on request.

Standard 922(r) compliance applies. The demilled receiver pieces count as foreign-source.
