These are all Mike's Nork pictures I could find on the forum; he may have had more than one Nork, or just one that got morphed in stages... The cased Nork in 9mm may just be an image he found somewhere because I think the others are all .45 ACP??

I sure miss that guy... Frown

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where:
Rare perhaps with those sights and no Norinco mark, TJ, but not rare back in the day before Chinese firearms were banned by a certain President. There were many imported and they were available at very low prices (a la the RIA pistols when they were first brought here). They were straight GI 1911A1s, but of great quality, and many gunsmiths preferred customizing them to US brands. Mike D. was a real fan back in the day.

Image Info: A rare bird here in the USA, a Norinco 1911. I got this off a friend and it has a nice blued finish. No Norinco markings just a marking of 1911A1 and .45 ACP with a Serial Number. About as clean a gun as exists.
