    IMHO, Less than $350, worth the bucks.They are not imported any longer.Norinco was one of the few 1911s thatBill Wilson would convert. I have had4 over the years and each one worked great. I paid from $225 to $325 for theones I had. Also, if you want you canadd all sorts of stuff to it. Just a basic 1911. bud

    I usually find them at gun shows and pawn shops for anywhere from $200-300 depending on whats been done to them. Usually you don't find them original because people have modified them so they will actually work. You'll also find the ones that people just added a bunch of aftermarket junk to them and they never worked right, because they didn't know what they were doing. I remeber a guy at a gunshow had one that was all tricked out with every aftermarket part you could replace, but it jammed and never function properly, the guy was trying to ditch it for like $500, but when I saw the guy come around again he had traded it to a dealer for $200 on a Kimber.

    Never had any experence with the 1911`s, but I`ve owned other handguns and rifles made by them and all functioned flawlesly.

    ....they give Col. Colt a run for his money. One of the best .45's I've had and even better than some of the stock Colts. They trick out really nice.

    Nice, real nice. I have one and the only aftermarket are the the rosewood grips I added. Works and shoots like a dream. They only came in two finishes, blue and parkerized. Go for it! "I didn't fight my way to the top of the food chain to eat a salad."
