See, I really don't care about how it looks. I just want it inexpensive, to work well, and be reliable.

got my first pistol the other day. a Norinco m93, Wow.
took this used pistol (300 rounds allready throught the pipe) to colby & fired 400 + rounds with only
1 failure to extract due to my freinds limp wrist
1 failure to fire due to cheap ammo.
Its just as accurate as ruger's & buckmarks. & yes I have fired more than a handful of each.
The only bad thing I can say about it is that the rear sight adjustment screw comes loose so I have to spend two or 3 bucks on some locktight.
If thats all it needs for me to get the same accuracy for $300 less than hell yes I am happy.
So yeah for $150 Im buying another one to shoot Akimbo.
still havn't paid as much as a name brand so BOOYAH!~...

In fairness to John guys, you can't really plan "JIT" delivery on firearms form China. It's not like WalMart microwaves and potato peelers that just get wved through customs. The PRC requires mountains of paperwork to sell guns out of their country and Canada Customs and the RCMP require mountains more to import. Then you need to wait for a ship that is sailing directly to Canada without stopping in US waters. Good luck with that.
I'm surprised they have inventory as often as they do. And remember, these shipments are bought and paid for before they ever get loaded into shipping containers. When a loaded container sits on the docks at the Norin co warehouse, that's capital Marstar has tied up in a foreign country and costs John real tangible money.
Don;t you think they'd get the stuff here sooner if they could?

No. They're sadists and keep running out of inventory just for the giggles they get from watching us squirm.
OK. Maybe they're not sadists. And maybe they would get the stuff here sooner if they could. But that knowledge still doesn't stop us from squirmin' though now does it!

what happens then....????
It will be illegal to import guns without a UN serial number, date of manufacture and the country it is bound for engraved to specific tolerances on a visible part of the frame or reciever.
Marstar is not out of everything. I just got an NZ 75. It arrived quickly and seems like a solid, well made piece. Haven't had a chance to fire it yet.
I can appreciate the difficulty they face in importing firearms. It's a little harder to understand why things like range bags, sights and snap caps are also out of stock.
