Norinco quality control - NOT A "ARE NORINCO's GOOD?" Thread...

I have 6 Norinco pistols.

$99 9mm is hoot and works well. Did not expect much and got more...

3 1911s. Very accurate.

CZ clone. Barrel bushing blew out and safety fell off..

Sig clone. very smooth and accurate.
 
NP22 (Sig 226) with somewhere around 11000 rounds (everything you can imagine) through it - one broken sping, otherwise no problems. My first brand new gun, from Marstar, for $349(?)....worth every penny!

Ithaca 37 knock off shotgun - for a $200 shotgun, it's ok. Heavy, crude machining, lots of feed and extraction problems if you don't rack the slide 'firmly'. This isn't a gun I'd bet my life on but for busting stuff at the range, it works.

M93 (Woodsman clone) - great little 22 and shot everything I fed it. Shot it a bunch then sold it for about the same money I paid, which was not a lot. These are hit and miss...mine was a hit!

1911s - haven't bought or shot one yet but they're next on my list. I'd like to get a used Commander to tinker with before deciding if 45 is another calibre I want to get in to. For $300-350, I hear this is a good deal so I might as well join the crowd.
