do you have one?

how are they?

chamber 23/4" or 3"?

pro's vs cons?

any info would help, thinking about getting one.

thank you for your input.
 
Had one, sold it fast. Was up front on the problems and someone wanted it. I hope he fixes it but, you will never see another norinco in my locker
 
stevens (savage?) also released the same copy, and from what I saw it was garbage, i'd stay away personally but they are out there and i'm sure people are happy with them.
 
Why buy one of those when you can get a real (used) Ithaca made with American quality for like $200?

A gun made with actual specifications, parts available etc?
 
I know this is a old thread but feel compelled to talk about my recently purchased yl-12
The 1st one I got I sent back for a out of spec receiver, barrel wasn't sitting straight. So I exchanged it and the 2nd one I got is perfect. Action is very smooth and feeds everything I put in it. I love the gun for its simplicity. I honestly can't foresee any complications with this gun and am extremely happy with the purchase. On a 2nd note I also had a maverick 88 and it also performed well. I sadly traded it for a DA grizzly mag and regretted it. The DA was just to dam heavy so I got rid of it. I prefer the tube mags on shotguns, may not look as cool but to me they are a more practical shotgun
 
I've got a M37 from the 50's. It's one of my favorites and I plan on gettin a couple more when I can afford it. IMO they are very well built and a lotta fun to shoot.
