Any chance of getting Norinco broomhandle mausers?

+1!!

Norinco dont make the guns guys, they simply brand and sell them.
just like Mastercraft and Canadiantire.

you cant judge a book by its leather.

 

[wbaad]

that would be sweet! one in 7.62x25 and a 9mm combo for 200 bucks! throw in a luger too
have to make them strong. don't want that bolt to hit you in the face!

This is the fourth or fifth time people have asked John for them.
I don't think anything has changed since last time (Sometime in August was the last time I think)

It's a complicated pistol to make and the margins aren't there. Most of the Chinese Broomhandles came over through Lever Arms back in the 90's. Unless they discover a cache, it's unlikely you ever see one again from China.

As a real broomhandle owner I want a Norinco also!

 

[masterYo]

I want one

 

[Fargone4sure]

Oh Yah! Sign me up for a couple.

That is precisely why I want one. And one more thing Han fired first.

UZI's are prohib no matter semi auto or not. They are banned by name.

Damn and here I was hoping they weren't......guess they were too scary

Kinda doubt the Chinese are going to tool up to produce a pistol that probably <1000 people in this country would buy for what it would end up costing.

Nice dream, though.

 

[ironshooter]

I d like a .40. Nice little gun.
Oh and there were some of these in .22 sold out a long time ago right ?

The Chinese shouldn't need to "tool up" to produce these:

[Mark-II]

Assuming they kept the tooling for a pistol they built 90 years ago.

And assuming they'd build a limited run for our market, I'd ask again what people expect to pay for them?

I'm sure John could use a laugh...

 

[ErikT]

I would buy one. And then I would dress it up like Han Solo's blaster. Wouldn't do that to an original. And yes, Han shot first.

 

[avroe]

Out of curiosity, do we know how many Norinco copies ever made it to Canada? (realizing that number is low, as they weren't commercially made available here)

Because they are restricted, I assume they'd be listed in the Registry?

 

[handofzeus]

$%#&! Great, now I really want one!

I find your lack of faith disturbing.


If Norc were to release this pistol I'd be buying two in a heart beat. One to stay Mauseresque and the other to get Solo'd

And would nerd out on a Sterling Sub Gun if a civi version of that could ever be Legal in Canada.
