Nothing really wrong with them.
They came in during the Obama-gun-buy era, at a time when the US couldn't build ARs fast enough. Our market just dried up combined with the threat of changing US export laws hitting the manufacturers faster than they could change production to meet those legal changes.
They were actually a bit pricey then. $1,600- 1,800 for a 14.5 inch M-forgery.
But, they were the only thing available and the Norincos were still months away.
Quality wise, they are ok, nothing exceptinial perhaps.
