Howdy Fellas, I believe this is the right forum to post this, mods please move if I'm in the wrong.

I've got some questions about Norinco's JW2000 coach guns, mainly wondering how bad they are and how serious the issue with 3" shells is even in a chamber marked for them aswell as
What problems should I be expecting from the factory?
Has anybody tried adding a saddle ring?

Do they come with decent screws or should marred up soft slots be expected? And last but not least does anyone have a source for spare parts?

Thank you for any and all responses,
Jake

Sorry for the messy format in advance, this is coming from a smartphone
 
Hey!

I had one.

As for the firearm itself. It was more of a fun novelty / cowboy slinging gun. It was relatively rigid until you shot both triggers at once. Firearm fell apart and sold it a day later. (was easily able to put it all back together and was safe)

In terms of what I put in. I used target load 2 3/4 and that seemed like too much.

Do I regret selling it? Hells yea, would I shoot both barrels at once again? No

I had one chambered in 3 inch and the first time I shot a three inch load of 00 buck the damn stock split in half right behind the hammers. Left me standing there with a piece of stock laying on the ground..

I rate these as a 2 out of 10.... in other words they are total junk.... btw.... Love my Stoeger coachgun.
 
I cannot speak for the coach gun but the infamous backpacker single shot. After three shots the front sight fell off not to been seem again. About ten shots later the forend separated from the gun. Overall, chinese made garbage at it's best.
 
I picked mine up from the warranty return pile from Canam at a gunshow, had a crack in the buttstock and the fore end loose. I tightened up the fore end and lived with the crack. Also had to file down a protruding screw behind the safety.

After hundreds of mixed loads (mostly birdshot and all 2.75") the fore end falls off again and the buttstock is wobbly. But action is still tight and mechanics are good, at some point I will make it a project gun and fix it up so everything is tight.

I paid 150.00? for it and knew what I was getting into so worth it for me to have as a fun gun to blast and tinker with.
 
It's simple. This is a basic farm grade shotgun. Its heavy. The design is not the best. The wood is soft. All the ones I looked at had plenty of loose screws out of the box. So, little to none QA or fitting was done at the factory. With 12 gage recoil in that condition, any gun will break or fall apart within a few rounds.

Want one? they work and will be fine. Don't want to go over it first as in disassemble and reassemble, be prepared for problems. They are lots of fun when they work. If you want a hammered coach gun they are the cheapest option out there. If you can, look for the 20 inch barrel version.
