    Two weeks ago S&O Krugersdorp had a dozen or so at R8.5 k. They looked nice!

    Check with Brian at DSG. He is pretty clued up when it comes to the Norinco factories etc.

    problem i have with chinese guns, my 313 included is the complete lack of knowledge on them, even by the guys importing them

    you will get an answer Norinco is made up of many smaller factories that manufacture to order etc etc ec
    would be GREAT to have some thorough knowledge on whats being imported


    it will more than likely be the same quality as 313, just an order filled by a different factory

    313 is Confirmed to currently be in service in sudan, mozambique and philliphines (full auto for civilians)

    if you want the quality one, speak to khumba about triangle 66
    How do I identify if it is factory 313?

    Would a factory 313 have more perceived value.

    I must admit, this version really surprised me in overall build. Nowhere close to a great finish, but not something I personally would complain about. I had assumed all 56 were very very rough.
