I also have had a few duds with my new LCW as well. 2 in maybe 150 rounds. Again tried re-firing and no go. Not too worried as you certainly getting good value. I will be hammering through the rest of my silver box to make room.
I noticed the new production Norinco said it has a storage above 15 years. Due to english translation does this mean about 15 years or minimum 15 years?
