I think on some of the other threads, it seems like Norinco hasn't opened up the gas port to account for the shorter barrel on the 10.5" Some owners are having problems with certain rounds not generating enough gas pressure to operate the action. Of course, in at least one case, after it was suggested that they move to a lighter buffer or better ammo, the guy switched to a heavier carbine buffer, so...

my 14.5" has had no issues, if anything, the only thing I dont like about it is its ambi dextrous fire control switch since it pokes under my finger on the other side.
FOR IT BEING 680$ ,
its run a conversion kit flawlessly,
done a box or two of winchester 555/federal 525 box of .22 with no cleaning save a few .223 rounds through per box of .22
also manages to shoot .223 pretty darn good,
that being said, its a chinese gun... 1/whatever the real number, will have something wrong, but make sure you buy from a good dealer that will swap out or has a guarantee, and your set.
that goes for all guns I guess too,
a little more if your labor is something like this

is to be expected

I've had mine for a year and finally finnished dressing her up recently. I'm very happy with the final result.
I have floated the barrel and changed to a Rock River trigger. I like it.
As for accuracy, I bought it for CQB. I doubt any rifle has an accuracy issue at 30 yards. here is a video of it in action:

My only norc. OK, so its not an M4- Chinese guns have been banned from import for a long time here thanks to Klinton
thanks to RCMP we can not own an AK47 like yours... we share the same pain... at least you could buy an American made AR for less in the stateside..
