    Damn, there is so much want on that page! I'm really digging the look of one of the Type 64s... Looks pretty badass.

    Not gonna get "complex" guns for that cheap...sadly...

    Their Luger copy isn't too great...according to John from Marstar.

    I'd "pay" a proper amount for a quality piece. $600-$700 isn't out of the books if its done well. Sure beats the $1,200 + for the originals...that you'd want to baby to have them retain their value.

    One very important thing to keep in mind.......

    Most all of the original imports of Norinco pistols from years ago were crude and rough and sloppy fitting based on countless statements from owners. HOWEVER, they have improved in quality control across the board every year since. So much so, that the latest versions coming in which are more like new generation Norincos, are getting very close to the originals and in most cases made from better steel and will outlast the original models. And Norinco accuracy has always been very good for the price.

    So I would stand to reason that if they did a re-tooling on a .45 mauser we could expect the very same track record of continued improvement from Norinco. At least those are my thoughts anyway....

    The site seems to be a list of almost everything ever made by every country, so I doubt that the tooling still exists in China to make a broomhandle Mauser pistol. Just as how I don't think they are equipped to manufacture "Chiang Kai Shek" Mauser rifles anymore.

    As much as I'd love to have a (relatively) low cost restricted length Mauser pistol in a popular caliber......
    You're right about that. It's just a database of rifles from across the world. Still cool though! I think a bunh of people got excited by te mauser, no wonder they want one! I've wanted one ever since I saw the first one in a movie. I don't even remember the movie but I definetly remember the gun.

    Sights like this make me drool and buy other guns I probably shouldn't...
