Will a Norinco shotgun barrel work on my 870?

If I understand correctly, the Norinco is a rip-off design. Just wondering if there is any change in the design that will not allow the barrel to work for me?

I tried a couple and I noticed indexing issues and a bit of a loose fit with the Norinco's on my remingtons...some of my 870 barrels were a bit too tight on the Norinco receiver and some were ok.
Lot's of people have not had issues but I was not one of them.
 
Not all Norincos have the same-length magazine tube (4 vs. 5 rounds).

The HP9-1, for example, has a 4 shot tube - but some other Norincos have tubes that are longer. To fit an 870, the barrel would have to have been be made to fit the 4 shot tube.

Correst my if I am wrong but nearly all 870s are 4 shot? They just throw on an extension right? I tried the 14" on an Express and a Wingmaster. Both fit fine.
 
My grizzly barrel works fine on my Wingmaster receiver and the grizzly works with my Remington barrels. I've seen some post that other grizzlys would not accept Remington barrels, I guess I got lucky.

18" Norinco barrels have the barrel ring in a different spot than the 14" barrels . Only the 14" barreled Norinco shotguns are interchangeable with the REM 870. :) Don't ask why, it just is.
