Hi Im thinking of buying a norinco bolt 22 for a practice gun, ive seen a few deals around but haven't seen any spear mags for sale.
I was thinking I don't want to buy a $250 rifle and have to fork out $80 for a spare mag.
Ive hear that they are pretty accurate ? for the money.
any feed back would be good. Cheers.
Must be able to get spare mags cheaper than that, my local just gave me one when I asked if they had any. CZ mags are around 100 bucks.

Guncity have them, may get them cheaper if you asked nicely.
Taieri arms sell brand new TOZ .22s on trade me and they come with four mags.
Give James a ring, I would stop well short of calling him an expert BUT he does do good prices:thumbsup:

Yep they are quite accurate, I started shooting Silhouette matches with one and was competitive after a few matches, out to 75mQuote:

If you prefer a plastic/laminate stock, keep an eye out for the Marlin XT, cheap from time to time and shoots CCI SV beautifully.
Can get this with a wood stock also - mine was 399 I think.Quote:

I had to tear the trigger down and attack it with a wet stone and remove a few coils from the spring to get it to my liking. I use it for long range .22 shooting. It is very fun popping fizzy drinks and slapping steel on our 200m range.Quote:

I have a 15+ year old JW15A and it still shoots great 50 - 75 m although the magazine is pretty much stuffed now and yeah replacements are expensive... I've just replaced the Norinco with a Zastava CZ99 as I wanted something nicer. It came with 2 mags and it's a great wee rifle but is a bit more $$$ than Norinco...
cheers for all those opinions at the mo going to go with the norinco. Theres not a lot of use for a possium rabbit gun here these days nothing to shoot.
i have a number of spare mags for the norinco for sale, send me a pm and i'll cut you a special deal.
The Norinco JW15 is plenty accurate. I have the 16" barrel synthetic one. It's taken a couple of bricks for the trigger to smooth out. Be wary of the steel 9 shot Norinco mags though, I've always had feeding issues with them and they are expensive. The plastic 10 round CZ mags a flawless.
Good choice I say the Norinco jw15, have 2 other .22 but I always find myself grabbing the Norinco
