Is it the same length as the m4?I love the compactness of the carbine variant.

The listed barrel lengths are. It’s possibly about the same depending on a few factors. If not then normally within a inch and a half.
Posted by 206 institute's magazine on Weibo a few days ago, but nothing has been posted here yet. Quite a bit of stuff for such a short Weibo post.
Rough translation:
The research done on the new rifle (QBZ-191) includes the following area: overall design and layout of the rifle, gun mechanics design (I think this refers to the trigger, recoil and gas systems of the rifle), ammunition, digital combat optic, accessories, ergonomics, new material and production techniques, barrel durability, accuracy, simulation analysis. There has been a drastic increase in the gun's anti-corrosion capability, the rifle can withstand wear and tear much better, the mechanisms can self lubricate to a certain degree and the surface finish of the rifle is also a lot better than previous rifles. The most vital breakthrough for the rifle includes the following 3 things: 1st, the barrel life or durability has increased drastically. Second, the accuracy of the rifle has been increased drastically. Finally, the problem with regards to the lowering of accuracy under extreme conditions has been solved completely (the accuracy of the rifle remains consistent regardless of usage and condition, I heard this was a significant problem for the early versions of type 95)
Its really frustrating when they blur out simple images of rifle. Its not that special nor its so secret. I bet western intelligence/spy must have already touched it in person.I love the compactness of the carbine variant.

It was enlarged from lower resolution so that can't be helped to begin with. Also, there has yet an official debut - as in a full length special programme on CCTV Channel 7, full walkthrough including its R&D, production line, hands-on range trials, accessories, the works... - for the new AR thus far.

Looks like 3D printed model if you ask me.
Might be afterall the shape seems less smoother in a few spots. Im not implying anything just find it weird why Weibo would take this down

Wouldn’t read too much into take downs as that is overwhelming done by AI rather than humans. Even human mods are generally low paid, low skill high volume processing focused, who just do what is asked and are not in the know any more than regular people.
I don't recall seeing the new optic and magazine on any of the 3D printed ones so far
