Norinco NP-22

[FraserP]

I purchased the sig 226 nock off probably close to 10 years ago but because of life getting in the way, have maybe only put 50 rounds through it.

Just curious if anyone else is getting longevity out of this firearm? Anyone encountered any pros / cons with it.

Thanks for some input in advance

I’ve owned a few and they were all built like a brick sh!t house. I think they are hands down the best budget pistol on the Canadian market.

Mines a bit picky with ammo, but handloading I was able to get a load it likes. Shoots accurate enough for me. I do have the Hogue rubber grips on it which I really like.

Mine works great. About the only ammo it doesn't like is steel cased. They won't extract because they stick in the chamber.

Don't worry at this rate it will last you a few lifetimes

Only problem with them is the cheap mags, thou they do work,
the chambers can be a bit rough, that will give trouble with some crappy ammo ie Steel
Triggers can be smoothed up, but a lot of shooting will do that as well.
