Friendly Heads Up: Norinco Shotguns!

[C-Fish]

Mister Wilson is 100% on this one folks.

I purchased a 982 for my son for HS graduation. I was so impressed that I purchased one for myself as well.
Here is mine.

I have added a +2 extension to the mag tube and a Speedfeed IVs stock.
My son's sports the same +2 and a ATI stock.
Here's a better picture of the +2 extension on another gun.



Both have been 100% reliable.

My only gripe is the thin finish, but for $200 this is a very solid shotgun.


We have put hundreds of rounds through both, from birdshot to 3" magnum slugs.

ok so after reading this I rushed down to big 5 to check one of these out. they didn't have them on sale but I know that big 5 rotates their sales every week so it'll probably be on sale within 2-3 weeks tops. they did have the H&R pardner pump defender which is also an 870 copy for $215 but since it only has bead sights and I already have a real 870 I decided to pass though I doubt I could find the defender version cheaper, though maybe for the same price.

big 5 actually wanted $300 bucks for the norinco but they only jack up the price so they can have a "sale" later. if I wait for the sale it should be about $50-75 cheaper or more

although last week I scored a really nice used 870 express magnum with 26" vent rib barrel for $129. if you can pull that off it's the better way to go!

I hear they were recalled cause they can give you lead poisoning
(bad joke?)

kinda off topic.....I only stepped foot in a big 5 once. I was doing some ammo price checks. I walked out immediately when I realized that 9mm WWB was priced approximately TWICE as much as Wal-Mart's prices.
