By the time you pay for parts and the Smith....you might be better off buying a quality piece and saving the Norinco for playtime !!!

I bought one of their ( Norinco) M-14s models just because I couldn't justify the price of a Springfield Armory rifle....but I already new it would not compare in terms of accuracy or quality....you get what you pay for.

My choice for a .45ACP.......Para-X 1911....Made in Canada !!!....but assembled in Florida ????? (wtf)

Phone Gunnar at Armco machhine and Plating in Prince George- he is the Norinco KING when it comes to tuning and juicing up Norincos.
he has done some great work for my son and I .
he can do up a Norinco far cheaper and ,make it shoot just as well as a Gold Cup, I've seen it done!
