RIP Norinco guns in the US.
It'd be interesting to see what they would be selling here if they still could. Probably barely functional dogshit like the Turk shotguns with a few gems scattered about. I've heard their AK machinery is basically clapped out and the stuff they're selling to conflict zones is IO-tier.
Stuff like the Type 97 that was available in Canada is modern and would have buyers. There's also the whole backlog of easily importable stuff like SKS rifles. Their older AKs were quite high quality, and even if the production has degraded, simply having them available would drive insane AK prices down.
