Norinco M1897 Shotgun

[Old Lord Brocktree]

Hey everyone, if anyone has any information about a site that has these, could you toss me a link? I'm looking for one around $200. That's about the going rate for them around here. I've found sites that want twice as much, but they're retarded.

this site use to be good, but you need a c&r or FFL to see price listings

honestly dont bother with the norinco version

i got a chance to hold one, and man what a POS, i couldnt tell if it was light and very polished wood, or ******** plastic

your do better buying a mossberg, i mean trust me

also i really wanted the trench version, but i cant find them anywhere

your best bet would be to check out your local gun show if your interested

go to packing.org for up and coming gun shows or google search

I've held one, and it was a perfect match to the original, right down to the wood. So you held one of the old old old versions.

Yeah, I've seen one at a local gun show, for 800. I like the reproductions because you don't run the risk of destroying an antique.

Hey, sorry to invoke a necro on this thread.

But I just got the Sunday paper with an insert for a local sporting goods chain that has the Interstate model 982 magnum by Norinco.

I did a quick Google on the model looking for feedback comments in gun forums when I stumbled over a retailer website that has something you may be interested in...

And, from a competing gun seller...

Oh, and I thought this was an interesting model...

Pity is, those models are backordered. You can buy the Model 982 today for $179,
