    Comrades, I have gone to the Dark Side, now I need to figure out what to do with it! What have you done with yours (pictures please), or Gunsmiths who have wrestled with this sterling example of CCP prolitariate production! Workers of the world unite!!! ;) .

    The folks at Berryville did a super job, in my opinion, on the Norinco. Finish is flawless, fit is superb, it shoots good. Here tis;

    Altho it's not strictly a 1911 I'm gonna get a Sig Nightmare fullsize in 40 cal. I've got a commander sized in 45 already and I just like them, and 3 - 40 cals just ain't enough. And I have a new in the box (such as it is) pre ban Norinco 1911. It's going to go to NH for sight replacement, new...

    Maybe a year or so ago I went on a Norinco Pre Ban 1911 binge, bought a few. I've only messed around with one of them, put an Ed Brown barrel in it, EB trigger, sear and disconnector. I was suprised by the quality of the steel and the fit, the chinese did these right. But, the finish flat out...

    CTD has a GiRSAN Commander model (MC1911C) for $400 ($427 today, Bud's is $413), and it's a forged slide and frame like the Norinco's. Is the steel as good, will gunsmiths like it as a base for their work? Too soon to tell. I've seen some mixed reviews, but it seems most issues iron themselves...

    Here's is a Tussey Custom worked Norinco I picked-up in a Pawn shop for $385. I had no idea who did the work at first, but I found a 4 digit electric pencil number on the slide and some small parts that was not part of the serial number. I had another Tussey Custom built Colt that also had a 4...

    The other day I decided to get a new NORINCO 1911, so as soon as I found a nice second hand one I bought it. Many years ago, I owned an old one that despite it had been used and abused to my surprise it shot pretty well. Stupidly enough some time after I decided to sell it simply because at a...

    Received my Norinco 1911. Aaaaand my friend let it build some surface rust. It was stored NOT in the original box (which he has but forgot to send. He said he will send it later). Original mag included. The original grips cracked but I Gorilla Glued them back. I COMPLETELY disassembled the...

    Imgur album here: https://imgur.com/a/IZ03O $400 shipped for a Norinco SKS. The previous owner bubba'd this rifle up real bad, so the front sight block, bayonet and dust cover are not original. It also has that Murray's firing pin installed. Unfortunately, I've never had time to take this to...

    Everyone, I've been interested in picking up a norinco 1911 for some time but never come across them locally. I've found what appears to be a fair deal on gbroker but the guide rod appears extremely odd to me and I've never seen one like it. Can anybody help me out in identifying it? I'd...

    There's no way I would consider myself a gunsmith, but I thought I would share this. I've rust blued an Argentine Colt 1911 and a Sistema 1911 I picked up a few years ago from SARCO. They turned out nicer than I would have imagined, and are something I was proud of accomplishing. I recently...

    Not a high dollar gun like most that are posted in this section, but I wanted to share this one. I've wanted to pick up a Norinco for a while. I've passed on a couple that had been bubba'd up. I stopped by one of my favorite shops today, and saw this one on the shelf. It couldn't have been out...

    Would a Norinco 1911 be a good starting point to build a 10mm off of. Would it handle the hotter loads out there on the market possibly? Thanks for any info.

    I bought this Norinco 1911 with the intent of using it for a custom build, but decided to go with a 9mm instead. It comes with the box, manual, and two magazines. I have not fired it and don't know the round count, but it doesn't appear to have been fired much at all. $550 shipped CONUS, please...
