I have a Norinco 1911, as mentioned the slide, frame and barrel are great pieces.Mine has been upgraded, with fitted bushing, full length guide rod, mag well,extended mag release,new trigger and sears, and novak low mount sights.
This thing just flat out shoots, and is dead reliable.The best part is that I still have a little less the $550(canadian funds) tied up in it.
I also owned a norc m14 copy(never should've sold that one).It may have been a little rougher , fit and finish wise, than a springfield, but is made with a forged receiver , and chrome lined bore.Again very accurate, and reliable.
When they were still available at dealers , they ran right around $500 new, but the source has dried up, and now the used market is about the only place to find one.
I would buy another in a minute.
