Cool Website For Norinco Fans.......

45ACP Mauser..... I'd just finished reading an article about China's love for the Mauser C-96 in the early part of the last century too.

No doubt the Mauser would be a rapid seller. That and the NP-15. Oh and the revolver of course with the correct barrel length. And still, there are other cool Norc models on that site I would have to own....... Put me down for one of each! :)

An affordable (and I don't necessarily mean </=$350), well fettled and utterly functional C-96 and P-08 would be my two desires. I love the eclectic, and have no interest in being a collector. I suppose it'll always remain just a fantasy, however.
 
First time I see the Norinco TT-Olympia, as far as I know.

I wonder how much those fetch for? Are they still in production?

I absolutely agree.... Those .45 acp mausers would be UNREAL sellers even in our scant market. So let's take it to a poll..... I would take 4 to get production started, add your two, bfiles will take at least 10 I'm sure. That's 16 right there! lol. They must have other popular markets for a .45 acp Mauser maybe we can pony up with another COUNTRY and split production. ANYONE ELSE FOR THE .45acp MAUSER??

I would snap-buy one of these as long as I could get a few spare magazines. That would be outrageously cool.

One would need two - one to keep stock and one to steam punk into a reasonable facsimile of Han Solos blaster. (You know someone would do it).
 
Presumably the silenced Type 64 is a definite no-no ... after all, it comes in .32 Browning!

We all want the .45 Broomhandles that haven't been made in more than half a century but, realistically, can we get newly made, semi-only Type 80s? I have a 1909 C96 sitting in my safe that I have never fired.

A well-made, low-priced .38 Special would be welcome, as well, but I don't know if it could be made at a price that would significantly undercut Ruger's products.


PS -- Hey, Mark-II, keep your hands off my Mauser!!! Laugh2
 
I'd Be in for a broom handle! The only problem would be if norinco still has the jigs, forms and tools still.
 
Judging from the content of the site I would say this is not actually a listing of "Norinco" products, which I have come to believe from reading this forum, doesn't actually manufacture anything as a brand anyway. I think they just market products made by various Chinese arms factories.

The site seems to be a list of almost everything ever made by every country, so I doubt that the tooling still exists in China to make a broomhandle Mauser pistol. Just as how I don't think they are equipped to manufacture "Chiang Kai Shek" Mauser rifles anymore.

As much as I'd love to have a (relatively) low cost restricted length Mauser pistol in a popular caliber......
