Pics of a Norinco TU-KKW Vs. a BRNO #1
The Norinco is supposedly a copy of the CZ action. After comparing them, I see that is true. They are similar, but the parts will not swap. The CZ mag MIGHT work in the Norinco, but I wouldn't swear to it.
All of that said, the Norinco is a very accurate, and reliable rifle.

Seeing it all apart the Chinese looks more like a Mauser than the Mauser does.

Nice :thumbsup: , I have the Norinco JW-15 which I always heard was the Cz BRNO #1 knock off. Same action as the TU-KKW, just not dressed near as pretty. :lol: The Cz brand mags work fine in mine, and are a heck of alot cheaper and easier to find than the original Norinco. I have had better luck with the Cz mags than the two factory Norinco mags, the Norinco 10 rounders tend to miss feed, like the spring is weak. I don't have any of the factory 5round Norinco mags to say if they have the same issue. One used Cz mag I got, took a little filing and fitting, but has functioned flawless since. And, yes they are accurate :thumbsup:
