Anyone know for sure if the Chinese FCG has a spacer/sleeve for the disconnector? Also, which picture (1st or 2nd) is a Chinese disconnector? Thanks.   |
That is a Chinese semi disconnector. The Chinese used a trimmed down F/A disconnector in their semi-AK's. The Chinese trimmed down the "tail" of these disconnectors so the selector couldn't catch it. I've also seen trimmed down F/A disconnectors in a pre-ban FEG underfolder and Maadi sporters. Compare the disconnector with the F/A one in this pic, notice the length of the "tail" on the disconnector.  Chinese semi's, factory sporter FEG's, and most Maadi's used an extended selector stop. This stopped the selector in the F/A selector position. Therefore these AK's had to use a semi-only disconnector for safe functioning. Romanian, Arsenal, and most other semi AK's used the regular selector stop. This stopped the selector in the normal semi selector position. That is why these AK's can use a F/A disconnector with no problems. |

The geometry is the same for the disconnector... won't make a difference at all. The reason for the spacer is to make room for another device... the RATE REDUCER. Not entirely sure what this device did, but they felt the need to put it in for some reason. Some call it a hammer delay, hammer retarder, etc. Whatever, it's shown here:
