Yea, I don't recommend buying one. And if you do, have a good gunsmith double check to make sure it doesn't blow up in your face.
 
4th round(or 3rd). Minor cut on my face. Felt the gas or whatever rush back across my face. Scared the crap out of me.

It's my fault as well. It blew a primer out on the second or third shot. Measure the spent casing, seemed fine.
A day or two later, today, on the next shot is when this happened.
I should of threw it in the trash before this ever happened.

Blew the magazine out the bottom with the mag catch, and bent the trigger guard.
Stock broke in two, is held together by the cross bolt.
Where the barrel is pinned, you can see in the picture the action itself split apart
Ahead of that, you can see where the barrel moved forward of the action.
The bolt can be rotated up after I applied a hammer to it, but not the full 90degrees, so I can't open the action.
 
WOW, glad you aren't hurt buddy. Massive headspace issue?? Holy moly, that is the very definition of a blown up gun. Looking back at that picture, were you wearing a Fullface skidoo helmet?
 
Looks like manufacturing defect, the pinned barrel portion is where it failed. Norinco craftmanship at it's finest.......
 
Chambered in .223 Remington.

The comment saying "I'm gunna use this to talk people out of nork AR's" I think I've seen more "name brand" AR kaboom a then norinco kabooms. Maybe I'm wrong but that's my observation.
I'm sure "name brand" rifles kaboom here and there too, it's unfortunate but with the amount of firearms out there it is bound to happen.

Hey OP, did you check for a bore obstruction after the primer blew out? Maybe unlikely but I know I'd be checking.
Or did you see the projectile of that round hit your target?
