I have an AO Commander in .40 S&W and would love to find a Norinco in either .40 S&W or .38 Super, if possible. Can you advise where you found that fine little piece..?? Thank you..

I got my Commander from Marstar Canada. I've ordered it just before Christmas and got it sometime in Jan. Thanks :-)

thanks John, my next and last mod will be changing the sights and wood grips and that should be it :D of course lots of ammo and practice time

Get yourself a set of standard, contemporary Colt sights. The rear one fits the same dovetail and the front needs some work to reduce the wide tenon to the narrow opening. Add some wood grips and you will have a lovely gun. Wish I could have one too!!!

We can still get Norks up here in Canada. As you know they remain banned in the US and Marstar can't ship them to you from here.


Dano - Is that a standard trigger or did you have it changed out. Looks like a Dlask.

Stay Safe

The trigger is from Wilson Combat and the mag attached in it is from Dlask

cheers!

You have not change your grip safety yet, hope it doesnt bite. How does it shoot?

Danboy I like the look you have there now. The wrap around grips are nice. I may go back to my Norinco wrap arounds as they seem to be more comfortable than wood on the gun. Looks like a real shooter.

Take Care

No need to change the grip safety as i have small hands :) At 15 yards, i get 1" groupings.

Thanks Bob. Yeah, i'm quite impressed w/ the Norinco. It is a real shooter especially after i had the trigger job and the sights replaced.

cheers :-)

You must be enjoying your Nork a lot and I can smell another Nork coming.
