How widespread QBZ-03 is in Chinese military/police forces when compared to QBZ-95? Some people have suggested that border guards, paratroopers, support troops and police units have gone with QBZ-03 because it's cheaper and others claim it's nothing more than a political decision, so what is the correct answer?

correct answer for border guards is because of it's versatility, 95 has problems in border areas due to the condition.

Paratroopers, because of the length of the gun, it can fold, and others I guess because it is cheaper, and mostly it's a simple and effective gun. Though 95 is equipped on most special police in urban areas. I seen a 1960s gun on some police in other areas.

The Type 87 (also known as QLZ87) 35 mm automatic grenade launcher (AGL) is an air-cooled, gas operated[1] fully automatic weapon and is crew transportable (12~20 kg) with limited amounts of ammunition.[2] It can fire a variety of 35 mm grenades stored in the 6-, 9-, or 12-round cartridge drum. The Type 87 is described by NORINCO as "Mini Infantry Artillery". The 35 mm grenade pierces armour up to 80 mm thick and produces fragments to kill or wound personnel within 10 meters of the point of impact. The Type 87 can fire on a tripod or by using the bipod fixed on the barrel. It can also be mounted on armoured vehicles or helicopters. The launcher is capable of attacking low-flying air targets as well as targets on the ground.

This 35mm hand held cannon looks like a hot seller.
