Well, this is not strictly a norinco problem. This is generally a firearm problem. I don't know of any market that goes so often out of stock on almost everything. Finding magazines for anything other than the most common firearm is really hard; finding good, reliable magazines for rare firearm is next to impossible or the prices are just ridiculous. If you take a look at some sponsors forums, they take preorders for guns that are scheduled to arrive with 2-3 months but end up delayed by a whole year. The most common question on some sponsors forum right now is "Should I preorder a shadow 2 or buy an SP01-Shadow?", and nobody can answer that because orders for shadow2 were supposed to be filled 3 weeks ago, but only a few guns made it here. The waiting line to get an ATRS Modern Hunter is about 6 months, but "we can't really tell cause it depends when we receive the furnitures for your particular rifle".
I've learned you have to be patient in the firearm hobby. Between CFOs taking their time to rubberstamp a piece of paper, manufacturers lying to distributors and/or distributors lying to retailers about delivery schedule and retailers making mistakes in filling paperwork or mishandling deliveries (last gun I bought it took over a month to deliver cause the retailer filled the paperwork for the wrong barrel length and had to start from the beginning - not canam), and then canpar... let's not talk about canpar.
If a car company failed to deliver like the average gun company does, they'd be out of business within 6 months. It's really not just norinco.
as much fun as the reading has been haha
