Picked Up a "New" Norinco Today

Combloc · Jun 3, 2018

Well, just because we can't get them anymore doesn't mean we can't enjoy what we've got. Post 'em up!

I'll start with a couple pictures of my NDM in the snow This was still new unfired when I bought it too but it didn't stay that way very long!

I had never heard of a norinco 1911. Thanks for sharing.

Does anyone have a Norinco shotgun? I've been eye balling them for years.

Bertfish · Jun 3, 2018

Dad has one. Not the prettiest ever but it shoots good enough. Very reliable

I have one. 1897 riot model. Mine is one of the good ones that was imported that all the CAS guys want.

I let it go a few years ago to another member. I tried to get it back for a few years and he finally sold it back to me. I won’t be letting it go again.

There is a damn nice example of a Norinco 1911 on GB right now. Buy it now at $549. Link won’t work. Here’s a photo. Search Norinco 1911. You’ll see it. Someone jump on it!

Thats the one I've been looking at. There is no way i'll ever afford an original Winchester trench shotgun

ETA; post some pics Bossman

Lighting at my bench is horrible for photos. But you get the idea. Very cool shotguns. And they slam fire as the originals did. I’ve probably put 100 rounds through mine and I love it.

a classic example of a frustratingly crappy listing... for the love of <> if a seller is gonna bother taking photos, at least make them visible.

It hit $555 first time it listed and didn't meet the (then) $600 reserve...

Very happy with my Norinco 1911A1.

I almost hit the button but better not. I have been buying too much lately and need to stop for a while. Someone would get a decent deal with that one I think.

You do. You won’t be disappointed. Just watch running it fast. It will remind you quickly to keep your hand in the right spot.

Combloc · Jun 3, 2018

Nice shotgun! I've always liked the looks of those. I paid $600 for my 1911. The one on GB looks pretty good considering the less than stellar pictures. Unless they imported some with wood grips though, they've been switched out. The magazine doesn't look original either although that may just be the lighting.

somd_mustangs · Jun 3, 2018

the mag looks like a Kimber tac-pro or similar with removable base...

someone must have been listening cause it sold via BIN

Never fear another just showed up for $1800.

Now I’m just wondering who will post it up in the 1911 thread when it arrives.

somd_mustangs · Jun 3, 2018

Hope so, then we can see what it actually looks like

Unless something was horribly wrong I think it was a good deal, with the box & papers.

Combloc · Jun 3, 2018

Yes, please post it when it arrives!

Nice! I have the "IAC" trench with bayo lug and heatshield, it has one little ugly rust spot (its Chinese steel) that didn't wool with lots of oil off but a really sweet gun. Got it for around $400 FTF a couple years back but had to drive to Easton. Not a common gun.

They aren’t seen a lot. Very cool guns. I had a SXS 12ga at one point as well. Norinco has made copies of a lot of classic shotguns and pistols. They also made nice copies of M14’s and AR’s.
