Has anybody used NORINCO 9mm Parabellum Luger Ammunition?

[qwertar]

I'm relatively new to firearms and I've been reading that the definition of corrosive/non-corrosive can change dependant on what country it's from.

I wanted to see if anyone has purchased and used the NORINCO 9mm Parabellum Luger Ammunition listed on CanadaAmmo.com?

Any other concerns when purchasing bulk ammo?

Thanks,

Only concern is that you can't stop shooting!

The Norinco 9mm is $279/1000 or (if you buy 2000 rnds) the price per 1000 goes down to $250. Am I missing something -- that's not cheap. MFS 9mm ammo is running $220 / thousand at CGN sponsor Reliable Gun in Vancouver. Why is there a run on the Norinco 9mm? Just curious.

It's not a smokin deal that's for sure but the free shipping is attractive if you aren't local to a good deal.

Ahh you are right, I was assuming that was the cost for 2000 rounds.

That solves the problem right there,

Thanks,

I may be mistaken, but I believe the Norinco is reloadable while the MFS is not. That could be another reason.

Steel cased vs. brass cased boxer primed??

Just wondering from a picture it looks like Norinco is surplus stuff and MFS is new. When do you think Norinco was produced 1993 like Czech stuff or later.
