Any idea what this is?

There's this pretty old looking rig I bought not too long ago, looks like 60's maybe. I don't know anything about it really, other than that it's an AK chest rig. Anybody know more about this?

Image Not a very good picture, but you can see some faint Asian writing and a number, "352"

Appears to be a general Chinese chest rig.
I'm a major chairsofter, sorry about that.

56式 = 五六式

and i think it should be 3521 which is the factory number for 南京际华
cant see shit but basically before the type 95 came out this was standard issue, and now its all over the place

You can get them new for $15, and I was selling mine at the swap meet for $10. Nobody bought it. :'(

$35???

Goodness, I got mine on Ebay for $7.50 straight from the red blooded commies themselves. Course it took a month to ship and it's the seven cell, four mag version. Still, $35? I think you got ripped off my friend.
