Walther Olympia <=> Norinco clone

[bigbuck007]

Hello again,

Yes ear muffs for sure.

One question to the specialist:

The Norinco does has a slide catch (last round fired and the slide stays open)

My Walther doesn't has that feature.

Can anyone confirm that the Walther does not has this feature?

regards

Bigbuck007,

I'm glad the clone magazine works for you just as it did for me. As I said in an earlier post, I was able to buy a clone with two magazines, keep one of the magazines and then sell the clone for as much as I originally paid for it. Thus, the magazine was essentially free! You know that would NOT be the case with an original Walther magazine, which would be very expensive if it could be found at all. I'm glad it worked out so well for you. KK

The Walther is working perfect with a Norinco Magazin, no magazin adjustment needed! You may fine tune the magazin catch but it is not necessary for proper function. The magazin is fitting tight in the Walther so the catch is just nice have.

The Norinco Slide works well with the Walther base but not vice versa!

pls. see the pictures

Any comments welcome

You are correct.
The clone has a feature that locks the slide open after the last shot has been fired. This feature was not on the original Walther pistol. It's a nice feature, but it is not present on the original Walther Olympia. KK
