Norinco NP29 First Day at the Range Outside...

[rocco]

Took my new Norinco NP29 9mm 1911 to the Range today...

Report:

Wolf 9mm 124 fmj 100 rounds
Tula 9mm 115 fmj 100 rounds
Norinco 1911 9mm
stock mags
Temperature -10c
Frog Lube
snow


All I have to say is... No problems.... Nothing at all...lol... Love the Norinco...

I was hoping it was -25c to do more extreme cold testing... So then I just dropped the mags in the snow during a reload ...then loaded them up...put some snow on some ammo...Np29 was eating it like it was nothing.... I was impressed...and recommend it...

accuracy at 5 yards was good...I tried 10 but cant give an accurate answer if it was me the cold or the gun...

Hope this helps someone...lol Thx

I didn't find my NP-29 to be to accurate. 24 inch group at 25 yards plus 30 to 40% keyholeing. functioned perfectly but.......

I have a 275 average in centerfire so I know it's not me.

 

[rubberdown]

at 25 yards, they are not the most accurate, but it is always still a fun gun to punch paper and relive weekly stress

 

[Advoc]

Haha! hopefully you mean relieve and not relive. cheers!

The one I bought several years ago had a very loosely fit bushing and shot like #### until I replaced it. Shot much better after that. Do they still make them with skinny barrels? Or are they standard sized now?

 

[rocco]

looking to upgrade the bushing 100%...

 

[rocco]

At the range I use my AR-15 10.5 from 10 yards up to 100 ( testing 200 yards soon, why not )....So I am happy with the sub 10 yard grouping...happy, but I think a new bushing will help...I will give an update at 30 yards soon...I will try some new ammo and the same as today..see if there is a difference..

Can you post some pictures? I'm really actually quite interested in playing with a NP29

 

[rocco]

I got video...I set the IPhone down and record... see how my form is holding up...but its not going on youtube lolol...not that good

Where did you get it and do you know if they have an NP30.

 

[lejarretnoir]

I have one of the older ones and they are very accurate @ 25 yds. 2" to 3" groups if I can hold it. Bushing is tight on mine.
