Norinco Luger at Simpsons - Page 3

Dwight, may I say that you are a lucky sod! I've been eyeing a Webley and Scott .455 Self Loading Pistol before it sold and I'm glad someone else, a fellow Luger Forum person, got the Norinco (before my poor bank account took a final hit). That said, though my bank account is glad I didn't get either, curiosity has to be satisfied...

How does that pistol feel in the hand? I know the Norinco was a prototype but how does she compare to one of her older cousins?

It looks kind of strange. but it is palpably a Luger.
