"Also Note on the Norinco CQ-311. Only five hundred ever manufactured. This was in 1989. As the story goes Colt got a hold of a few early examples, in '89, and feared two things first the quality of the product, and second the ability for Norinco to mass produce millions of copies thereby swamping the market. Colt worked out a deal with Norinco to stop the production of the AR-15 clone. Hence Norinco makes licensed copies of the 1911 and were provided all tools dies and metallurgy for the 1911."
This does appear to be true, can anyone find flaws in it?
My guess it that one part of the article that could be picked is the claims of quality, I think that Walmart proves that the second fear was genuine. All in all I wonder if the quality was as high as it says?
