Norinco M93 Woodsman Grips

[MTLean]

Hey y'all,

looking to see if anyone had an idea on where to get grips for this particular gun? Would the Norinco be considered as a GEN 2 Woodsman or GEN 3?

Same question on the GEN would apply on spare mags?

What else could i do to this bad boy when i receive it?

Any idea suggestions or comments are always appreciated.

Thanks

It's actually a series 1 copy early Colt Woodsman. Series 2 and 3 have a different shaped frame (bottom of grip on an angle up and back on series 1)
I modified a set of series 2 grips for mine, a lot of work but what a difference in feel!

If your looking for parts for yours make sure you look for early series 1.

Cheers!

Nice well thanks for the informative reply! Can you post a pic of your work on the series 2?

All you need is a soldering iron and shizt load of patience but the difference it gives this little gun is huge.
I also parkerized it, turned out a very nice black finish. Much better than the patchy bluing from the factory.
The first mag (left) is a colt match series mag, the other is the norinco. Both feed flawless.

very nice work you did with the grip! i can say the same about the parkerizing! what method did you choose for that last part?

*edit*
lol these grips would cost the third of the gun price
