Buttstock of an unknown firearm. It doesn't match the new SAW or LMG we've seen so far. Could it be for the new GPMG or HMG?

It’s a sniper rifle stock. Mini pict rail is for monopods; adjustable cheek piece is too fancy for regular rifles; thick rubber recoil pad suggests large cal; thumb hole design adds additional cost and fanciness and is typically used to reduce weight (sniper rifles are heavy) and to give the shooter more hold options to better stabilise his rifle for precision shooting.

It's just a dummy rifle, a very worn-out one to be exact, look at the obvious bent at the "barrel", the carry handle that broken off and the absence of the charging handle.
Looks like it, The bad quality makes it difficult

The sniper rifle in the middle could be an updated or upgraded variant of CS/LR3 or CS/LR4, with some minor differences in furniture. It might fire a smaller caliber than 7.62mm, given what appears to be a smaller ejection port cutout.

Theses images could indicate that the sniper rifle in the quoted post (middle rifle) has been adopted by the PLA in some capacity. I still don't know the designation or caliber. Might be chambered for 5.8mm?
