Parts kit to upgrade my norinco

[Jtopping]

Hey was wondering if anyone knows of someone selling a 1911 parts kit to upgrade my Norinco 1911. Looking to replace everything and am looking for suggestions or pointers to a supplier. Thanks for reading!

SARCO in the states has them and they will apparently export. I've never dealt with them and have no idea on quality.

He has a good point. if there is that much you don't like, then just sell it and buy a better gun.

Then its all good. the norc guns are great for playing with because you aren't going to destroy anything collectible, and they can only get better the more you do. brownells is a great source for parts at reasonable prices. All the best on your project.

I have heard that they do, but i have personally never dealt with them. Give them a phone call since they don't really answer emails as I and lots of others have discovered...

If it's the GI model, then all the small parts are forged steel...you would want to stick to EGW or Wilson Bulletproof parts or you are downgrading your pistol.
If it's one of the Sport models, then it's not such a big deal as they MIM everything small on those models...
