Beat me to the punch! You forgot to mention: ...and children."
Norinco quality has gotten much better as time goes by. What they produce today is way above even anything they made only a few years ago. Although I always prefer the original, for those looking for vintage piece and can't afford it or find it, then Norinco is not a bad way to go. Don't expect their value to increase! I know people that have the 1887 and 1897 model shotguns and they are a lot of fun for under approx $400. Whereas the originals would go for many times that. I have 4-5 of their M14 rifle copies and they shoot fantastic ($400). The 1911 is also a nice piece. Many of them need some tweaking to get them running well, but for the money again you cant really complain. |
