My Norinco mag fed shotgun has a few quirks. First off I have not had a chance to shoot this one yet.

The heat shield is made of plastic. Mine arrived broken at both front mounting points from the factory. See pics.

The receiver stud was not the same as my 870 or my Dominion arms Grizzly. The Norinco used a smaller diameter bolt so I could not mount a Knox stock. I had to switch that stud for a true 870 spec part.

The Norinco and the factory magazine is blued, and Dominion Arms magazines are parkerized. The factory magazine is a tight fit and there is enough overall variance that the Dominion mags are a real b*tch to get in and out.

And here's the real thing.. Dominion Arms magazines DO NOT WORK in my gun. When used, they do not reset the trigger and they do not lock the action into battery. Only the factory magazine functions 100% in safety checks. Here's some pics of the magazines for comparison. Dominion Arms on the left, Norinco on the right.

I've had the same problem with my YJ-12 with respect to the castle nut not fitting the Knoxx stock I bought. Where'd you get a new castle nut from?
 
I bought a norinco mag fed 2 weeks ago, arrived with the barrel/ tube clamp busted, heat shield was busted. so far no 870 parts I have tried fits on it. This is my first and last Chinese made firearm, I was hesitant to buy it in the first place and I should have listened to my gut. I have no idea why people buy these things, sure they are cheaper but it shows in the quality, these things are complete junk. It will now sit in my safe until i can find a way to make into a bottle opener

well that sucks, i look at all china guns as things that have to be worked on before you use them.
if its busted then put in a claim with CP.
