Thread: JW15 yeah or nah

I have decided that i do need another gun in the safe and this time its gotta be a .22 . Keen on a bit of target shooting without the cost of .308 and sick of taking my shotty after rabbits. Soo been looking around and found these Norinco JW15 deals for $300 odd. Cheep chineese crap ? or will they do the job. Nothing flash , just needs to shoot strait and be usable.
Muchly appreciated guys

They work fine

My old man has one that was passed down from his father.
It shoots great, only downside is it jams when you have 5 rounds in the mag

Worth every penny. mags can be a bit fussy but can usually be made to work well, cz mags fit and work well but are nigh on a hundy for a 10 shot.
Get it.

Ha same as my old boys

Good enough for the price, had one a few years back, it shot straight, no real complaints.

cheers @Gibo @veitnamcam. off to get me one this weekend then

Just watch the stocks too, can split if bumped with a bit of force

apparently the bolt action norinco is such a good copy of the BRNO .22 that bolts and mags will fit

You can pick them up pretty cheap second hand on Trademe. I got one for $120 with scope and suppressor. When it arrived I found it was missing the extractor plate, seller gave me a full refund including shipping and told me to keep the rifle. Still yet to get off my arse and find an extractor.

Nope not in all cases, the bolt on my norinco is fairly rough compared with my mod2 and it doesn't fit my mod 2
