I have a blue one and a 2 tone bought at Marstar. Both function 100%. Both are very accurate with a very mild load. Groups open as loads get hotter. using 200 gr lead SWC and 3.5gr 700X.
Both have very nice external finish and good internals. Blue one had very sharp edges that I broke with a stone.
Can't say that either one has a gritty action when racked. I just wiped new gun down and lubed with CLP. One of these days I will smooth it with some non-imbedding lapping compound.
I see some here have polished blue slide with Flitz. Will try that, but guns look pretty good right now.
Shooting offhand (one hand, no support) we can almost keep ten shots in the black deliberate bullseye target. The strays are us, not the guns. My friend is pissed because the Norc is grouping better than his Smith 52 (38 Spl wadcutters).
