Accuracy will have more to do with you and your ammunition han the gun. I have two NP-44 inbound. If I see anything spectacular one way or the other regarding accuracy I'll let you know.
I have 2 of the old model double stacks and a bunch of the single stacks. Only one (an old single stack) is not "good" or better.
Most got grips, sights and trigger jobs, but accuracy was not an issue.
Not sure about the double stack version, but I believe the single stack would be made at the same factory? In my informal shooting of the single stack, it seemed quite acceptable. I have read that the biggest thing that holds back the accuracy is the barrel bushing which is easily replaced, and probably about a $5 part IIRC.
Just for information sake how much clearance should a barrel bushing have on a Norc 1911?
i have a norinco 1911 and a sig tac ops 1911 both in .45acp the difference in accuracy is quite noticeable. I was shooting clay pigeons off a sand bank from 40yards with my sig yesterday. My norc doesn't do that.
Thanks for the feedback. Shooting clay at 40 yards, that is definitely nice to have. But maybe too much to ask for a 400$ pistol.If all shots could land on the clay pigeon at 25 yards, I would be very satisfied.

The 2-tone is a 45. Blue is a 9mm. Both are single stack. The double stacks shoot the same, but are much fatter in the hand.
