Norinco 1911 Commander.
Bought it, used it, modified it, qualifed black badge with it, used it more, modified it more, then finally sold it and got a Kimber Custom II Target.
I put nearly 15,000 rounds through that little gun, and had it apart dow to the detail strip more times then I care to remember.
I am not much of a Norinco man anymore, but I will always remember my beginnings in pistol, rifle, and shotgun. Cheap guns bring the sport to the masses.
