Factory code 26, 10 million series, made in 1966. Just after the change from blade to spike style bayonet. This is the only factory code that is able to be dated.

Good looking Norinco :thumbsup:
Just curious, does he still have the original 10rd box mag.

nice gun for sure make sure you keep the original mag that is numbered to the gun with it. The 20rd mag makes it worth less to collectors
