Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Norinco Type 54 is identical to the Soviet military issue TT-33 handgun produced for and used by the Peoples' Liberation Army for several decades and is typical of the TT-33 pistols made in the Eastern bloc and other communist countries. It features a forged steel frame and slide, chrome-lined MILSPEC barrel, post-war type slide serrations for improved grip, and distinctive 'star' marked grip panels. The Type 54 superseded the Type 51 at some point in 1954. Even though the Type 51 and the Type 54 are mechanically identical, they differ in their markings, and Type 54s were made completely in China. All Type 54s observed are marked with the number “66” after the serial number, which is believed to be a factory designation. One source states Factory 66 is in Bei’an, China, but another gives a different location. Details about Factory 66 remain a mystery.
Return Policy:
We gladly offer a 3 day unfired inspection policy from the time that the firearm is delivered to your FFL. Refunds are available for all qualifying orders.
