a tapco adjustable stock will take care of that and the pistol grip and rail is is real nice too for about 79.00 ................

yea. i have a combat exchange monte carlo stock on mine. fits decent. do you know of any QUALITY sights (not scopes) for these things? my eyes kinda suck and its slow to use the stock sights.

emay... there is a peep sight and firesight front setup to replace the mill sights for about 30.00, dead on, and quick acquisition. i think there in cheaper that dirt cat,its great for these old eyes and turns the gun into a real killing machine...............

thanks. i was hoping you would say peep sight. completly off the subject, is that your skid steer you flooded in your ID photo? damned the luck if it is.

Ugly, one day some enterprising American will do the obvious and produce a true US version and clean the thing up.

No doubt that she's an ugly weapon, but to my experience it's die hard reliable rifle. I bought one brand new back in 1993 for my dad as a fathers day present for $119. We took it to the range several times and was dead on with iron sights at 100 yds. On one trip I taped a quarter to the bulls eye of the target and at 100 yds drilled a whole right through it on the first shot. I've been meaning to get one of my own ever since.

norinco mod 56 in a T6 tapco stock, recoil buffer, TS200 rear sight with .046 TS200 front sight post mod. Not a single jam/malfunction with over 250 rounds through her. sighted in TS200 ( highly recommended) this morning. gouped out 2" moa off bench but shots about 3-5 sec apart. best gun for the money by far!!
