Also the Changjiang II is a slightly more common model with multiple sightings of it on Xianyu as opposed to others. I’m also guessing some of these may be Taiwanese clones mixed in? I don’t know. Most of these hint towards ChangCheng involvement (perhaps before XT cloning) and GuangZhoucompanies
So I have these ADB Apple keyboards that are incompatible and used in the SE period rather than the earlier Mac’s. Are there any adapters or solutions to this?
In Guangzhou province.
The antenna is a bit older- it is an Archer Color Eagle double ear antenna with the rounded rings in the middle as well. Perhaps 70-80s? The Toshiba itself is way later, 2005.
It was introduced in the early 1990s after Legend (old Lenovo) had made a few terminals and monitors as well as a few other PCs (maybe, I have yet to find examples- stay tuned). It ran a Chinese version of DOS that allowed Chinese Hanzi to be showed and typed using Wubi (first introduced on XT compatibles). It had a smaller form factor and was shipped with the CRT, at least according to the only boxed example o have found.
This machine here runs DOS although it looks reminiscent of a Dumb Terminal or a TRS-80 AIO. The HDD gives it away. It had a special Chinese Character Card that allowed it to show Chinese Hanzi. The exact usage of these is unknown but I’ve seen a few XianYu listings of these.
This is in the Experimental 747 they have for display there! Very cool CRTs, haven’t seen anything like them anywhere else besides the Viewsonic monitor
Any ideas what to do? I’m thinking of buying a P16 and just moving on.
It’s a real CRT. Real odd thing. Anyone know more?
These are more late and expensive ones that were the primary extinction targets. They got replaced by gel blasters after 2018 that are more realistic…
The first MP5 is a 2019 production which is odd but it shoots bbs. The next one is a late pre 2018 AEG that is quite rare as many were confiscated. The M16A2 16-A Well “Airpistol” is an odd one- could it have any connection to Well? The modern Well airsoft brand? Who knows. The Bren gun that got the DPSH-28 Mag is the most inaccurate most hilarious airsoft gun I have. Works well, the drum is perfect for those cheap gravity fed springers. Lastly the last image has a collection of soft nerf like bullet and BB guns. The revolver is a soft bullet shooter. None of them are gas blowbacks.
This is my collection. All of these guns cost cents in US dollars once converted. They have the great quality and same models as the very well known UKarms and I guess their suppliers are prob the same. Only one survived after 2018 and the others didn’t. The 2018 toy guns ban made it harder to produce Bb and Airsoft (6mm plastic pellets) guns as anything above a very low joule amount was now illegal. Of these are nos pre 2018 models and can still be found in markets and small stores. Many people don’t even know these are illegal ish now. Police don’t care. Until it’s a gas gun or you mess up big time.
As people evidently like this guy here’s another photo of it I dug out.
