I think Norinco makes just about one of everything. Just can't get any of it (newer stuff) in the US.

Chinese weapons imports have been halted since Bill Clinton's days.


Yes, Norinco makes an AR15 knockoff.

Norinco did make an AR15 clone rifle, though they are quite rare in America being more common in Canada due to differences in legislation. They look much like a SP1/A1 except they have a distinctive handguard and pistol grip. Even if you HAD wanted to buy one years ago, I don't think you would have been able to due to the limited number imported and import restrictions. Around one thousand of these rifles were found in a warehouse in San Diego about a year ago which had been imported before the ban, and I believe they were sold. Small Arms review did a write up these a few months back and they gave it a favorable review.

I only have experience with Norinco AK's but if their AR's are held to the same 'quality standard' then I dont want one.  They are showy but if like their AK's, their internals suck and they cant shoot worth ***t.


BTW: I like the militaria.  Post more.

Norinco products are quite common here in Italy (M16A1 & M14 clone) since american AR15 are expensive and hard to find.

why would an american buy a norinco clone?

...you can buy the highest quality AR's in the world for 800-1000USD

not norico clone ARs--they SUCK (or at least look sucky)--no offence to yall

but Norinco AKs, M14Ss, 1911s kick a** for the $$$s--expecially the AKs (best AKs ever made!)

I knew norinco's AK are good but I wasn't sure about M14s and 1911s

Is the OD green of handguard, grip and stock came from factory or custom paint job by the owner?

they are some of the best for the prices--but tough to find around here anymore
h/w, Norincos will be the only thing that i will admit that is made in china that was actually made decently (everything else for sale here thats made in china has pretty poor manufacturing)

Norinco AK's suck.  The parts inside are made of sh** steel and crumble before a pallete of ammo is shot through it.  THey are the crappiest AK throw-togethers I have ever used.  But then again I am used to a Robinson Armament AK.

So is it Italian import laws or US export laws that make US made AR type rifles hard to get in Italy?

And yes I read the link. Thanks

italian import laws aren't that bad...not great but not too bad.
now the real problem are US export laws...after 9/11 is gettin harder and harder to export rifles. PaoloOrange is trying to import here in Italy a Colt MT6400 and he's having a lot of problem with the US State Dept.

while there are some crappy ones (like the banned ones) when they were available, noricos were the best priced AKs for the money--true not as good and tight as the robarms, but good enough

That has not been my experience.  The most worth while $219 I have ever spent.
