    The Iranians bought many of these norinco guns and issue them to the troops

    Yah I thought the front hand guard retainer from Norinco was round ... that makes adding the M16 hand guards hard unless you pop off the A2 front site and swap it out..... plus in that pic the barrel nut is not tappered.... I thought they were tappered with norinco too....

    The 311's had the early straight (non-tapered) rear HG retainer
    And yes you have to change the front HG retainer to a triangle one
    Pre-orders are horrible for everyone involved. They never go smooth. We will not be doing a pre-order to bankroll this project.

    Added the A1 pistol grip, the 3-prong game flash hider and the canvas sling. Under the hood I also changed the extractor springs and replaced the trigger with another Norinco one I had smoothed out for another build.

    3+ months finally it came to my door, great gun for the price. I picked up because of the possible ban . well its here now and i love it. i have a modern sporter coming anytime. Was to swap all parts, lots to learn . I just wanted one as a kid.

    edit, i have the triangle gaurd and the metal thingy, just need some tools now.

    edit, i just wanted an m16 clone since i was born.. i love it, close as i will get.
