I guffawed out loud at that "Engrish," and even called up my son and read it over the phone to him, at which point he laughed out loud as well. I love that stuff. I am kinda jealous--always have been--at your being able to buy the 14.5" rifles, which look so cool, and are truly M4 lookalikes. (Did you see the "hot discussion" note on the home page? I will not even COMMENT on keeping the rifle stock. No, I will not take the bait. ...oh, did you see Kim's article on on Setting up the Defensive AR15? He's got at least three of them now in different flavors...might be interesting for you. On a purely academic level of course.... |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I'm very pleased with the quality of this Nork M4, Mark. If Norinco is using the same QA standards for their 1911's then they are the absolute steal of the century at $325. I love the Introduction in the excellent User's Manual:- "CQ-A1 5.56mm automatic rifle is an automatic or semi-automatic weapon for infantry to kill individuals or group active objects. The rifle is characterized with light weight, high accuracy, high cyclic firing rate, easy operation, more cartridge-carrying and makes the operator enjoy a better annihilating firepower within 460m." I'm guessing they're speaking from personal experience of being at the sharp end of the M16/M4 rifles. No, Marg's ok with me getting one pistol and one rifle. This M4 comes with an ambi mag release and an ambi safety, both of which will have to go. The ambi mag release is stupid and the ambi safety on the right side interferes with my grip. I won't be altering this rifle much if I can help it. Mind you, that stock, front handguard and grip are so 1990's.... |
) Jerry posted a message recently to the fact that he's fired all common barrel lengths of AR15s but ultimately prefers the 16" barrel. Of course he's trying to assuage the feelings of all the American civilians here who can't shoot the shorter barrels like you and he can.
