NP58-Sig 226 in 40s and w. Anyone owns these ones?
- Thread starter PECHENEG
- Start date
Basically they work fine, The fit and finish is not generally perfect and the tolerances can be slightly off resulting in aftermarket parts for the original firearm being cloned to not fit or function properly in the Norinco. For the price they are an excellent choice and great for a starter learning type handgun that you really don't care too much if they get abused.
Generally the magazine also need to be norinco versions as again the tolerances give issues if your trying to use original magazines. But for $300 on sale or $400ish normal priced you really cannot go wrong just don't expect it to be an actual sig that costs 4 times as much but the norinco do fire when you pull the trigger so its really up to you as to what your really looking for and what you can live with.
I have a sig p226 40sw its excellent it feels like heaven in the hands, One norinco I am kinda interested in getting tho is the NZ-85B the CZ clone its supposed to be quite good as well and for 400 bucks easily affordable

NP58 was nicely finished; grips were crap. Pistol was very accurate. Unfortunately, mine only fed one weight of truncated cone shaped bullets well. 8 or 10 other bullet shapes I tried jammed frequently despite polishing and opening up the ramps. I bought an all steel Jericho because I had loaded so many different .40s, and it ate them all, and has one heck of a great trigger compared to the Nork Sig. I still have, and shoot my Jericho; the Nork went to a new home.
So guys, I've bought NP58 with just a single mag. I saw videos on youtube when people interchange SIG P226 9mm with 40S&W parts. But the question was: May I do same with NP22 and NP58, being SIG P226 pmm and 40S&W clones, respectively. Also, may I use OEM SIG P226 9mm and 40S&W mags. This question is because,sliders from original SIG P226 do not fit Norinco clones without some filing and polishing.
So the answer is: between NP 22 and NP 58-ALL PARTS including magazines are totally interchangable, EXCEPT: the BARREL (absolutely NOT) and a "recoil" spring (strongly recommended against)
