First off let me just say this is a great forum . Ive been a lurker for awhile and finally decided I should post something so why not show off my Norinco. Ive had it about 5 years now with no troubles so far, I installed a flash hider with bayo lug as it came with a solid hider no lug when i bought it also installed a stripper clip guide and just recently installed a USGI stock took a little fitment with a file in a few places but looks great , well at least I think so . Next is a dummy switch to fill in the holes. Sorry for the pics with my messing work bench but hey its pretty much the only man space I have . Again thanks for the great forum I hope to get alot more great info here .

Does your rifle have a USGI op rod? If not it has a rare Chinese op rod with the notch for the full auto feature and not the made for the US model with the rear slant cut op rod.

you know ive wondered but I never found a maker stamp on it but i wasnt sure if it was original to the rifle or not

Wow! a heel marked Norinco. Can we get a pic of the heel markings. You can block out the serial number if you want.

there is no serial number on the heel its just the marks century put on there or what i believe is there marks.

Welcome aboard the M14 forum and that's a very nice looking weapon you have. Since you've installed your riles action into a USGI M14 stock what method did you use to keep the op rod guide from coming unlatched due to the short Chinese connector backing out?

All i did was drop it into the stock after filing down some of the rear portion tomake my receiver fit , it has a real tight lock up with the trigger housing . I havent tried firing since the swap but the op rod doesnt pop out when you rack it back so hopefully there isnt gonna be a problem . I didnt know about this with the norinco in a USGI stock . The stock it came out of was a GI stock well atleast it looked like one that someone filled the selector hole on with filler.
