JW15s, 25s and other (?) Norinco .22s are based off of CZ/BRNO guns. Magazines fitting CZ 455 rifles, as well as earlier models (452 etc) should fit the JW rifles as well. Wanstalls has some in stock: http://www.wanstallsonline.com/cz-rifle-mag-.22lr-metal.html

Grouse River has some as well: http://www.grouseriver.com/Magazines_Accessories_s/410.htm?searching=Y&sort=3&cat=410&show=48&page=1&brand=CZ
 
3 CZ mags = more than I paid for my jw15 compact with a brick of ammo! Kinda out of wack if you ask me. I'm waiting/hoping Marstar will get some OEMs one day.

Be careful what you wish for! lol I've owned 2 of these Norinco JWs, and still have my backpacker. They are by far, the crappiest mags I've ever seen/used. I'd rather have one CZ mag than a pocket full of the Norinco ones. I now have 3, 5-shot, metal CZ 452 mags for my Norinco and the factory one never gets used. I figure I'll either own another CZ 22 one day, or, sell them on their own if/when the time comes. I don't have enough time to shoot as it is, so, fighting with a mag that won't reliably feed just isn't something I'm prepared to do.
 
.22LRGUY, would you be interested in selling your factory Norinco magazine? I was in the process of trying to make mine feed reliably last night and broke the follower while "tweaking" it. I now need a magazine and would just use/pass on this one for parts. Thanks, Toni.

Very valid points. I did not know the OEM Norinco 5rnd mags were that bad. The one I have has had zero problems after 200+ rnds of Win555's. I thought this was normal but then again the previous owner said he had tweaked it.
I may take your advise and buy some CZ 5's (I prefer a flush fit)
