I don't know about the Liaoning but I remember back in the '80s or '90s hearing that the PLA ran what were essentially gun ranges where regular civilians could pay to fire anything from small arms to RPGs and AAA. Something like that I can see happening again as part of a PR or recruitment campaign, same with running a skydiving or off roading or wilderness survival operation. Nothing that risks giving away information on frontline equipment or advanced tactics though.

Back in 2008 I was able to do this kind of commercial shooting in Beijing. Went there with some friends and fired off hundreds yuan worth of assaultrifle rounds.

We have a range here in town...most towns in the US have several.

But we can also go out into the hills around town on public land and just shoot into the sides of hills, or banks of dirt.. Here's an example:

Really can't do this in Germany though, tight control overall.;)

Anyway, that shooting range in Beijing also had the Chinese made Dragonov and heavy machine gun, we didn't try the machine gun, since we already blown enough money for that one day.:D

So the FAMAS like rail modification for the QBZ-95 is a private project?

I wonder if the PLA will adopt it or just the PAP and other SWAT units.
