The original Type 56 was an almost exact copy of the Soviet AK-47, with a milled receiver. Only later did the Chinese change to using stamped receivers, though still under the same Type 56 designation. The only noticeable diffrences between the two were that the marking were in Chinese instead of in Russian, and the folding non-detachable bayonets.
A suitable battery is [GP552]

The type 56-2 is just a variant of the Typ 56 with a Side-folding butt stock. In the mid 1980s Sri Lanka adopted the Type 56 to replace their old British L1A1 SLRs, and HK G3s. The Type 56 and its derivatives are currently still in use with the Sri Lanakan Military, with the Type 56-2 primarily used by their armored divisions crewmen.
