Canada Ammo has done it again! New Pistol

It is interesting to have another caliber but there is one drawback. From what I can see cheap 7.62x25 surplus ammo isn't as readily available as it was. The Norinco or S&B commercial stuff is at least as much as 9mm and actually more expensive than Wolf or Centaure reloaded 9mm.

I have no idea what the future availability of 7.62x25 surplus will be but if you are buying this puring for cheap shooting you might not what to count on that.

That's why I'm taking a pass, as interesting as it is. I've 2 new crates of surplus that I'm just going to sell once I get rid of my Tokarevs, and just get out of that calibre altogether. I don't want to get into reloading 7.62x25.

Norinco literally make everything so yeah, they've got quite the confusing naming system.
 
Great review, this pistol was on my radar.. wish I could hold it first though,as the girth might be too much for my average sized hands.

I will be checking out your other reviews, as they are thorough, and look forward to more.
 
Good review and good video!

I'd be very interested in this gun, except that I don't want to have to source and stock another cartridge/caliber. I've looked at a few of the Norc Sig clones and it's generally true that while the SA trigger is okay, the DA will be heavy and coarse. Not a problem for sport shooters of course, since it's easy enough to #### the hammer on the first round. My only concern would for long-term durability, and until someone shoots 5-10k rounds through a Sig clone, maybe we'll never know.
 
Thanks for the video ..good job !
I am looking forward to getting mine as Canpar has it on route.... should arrive in a couple days...:runaway:
