Here's my two tone NZ85b I purchased this year. This is my competition gun. =) 
Forgive the minor scratches from gun handling/dry firing =)

Stock Grips (they are ugly and slippery for me hehehe):



Purchased some china made g10 grips (I like this one as it is slimmer and gets better grip):



Out of the box, trigger pull is heavy and gritty as well as the slide.
Sent it to the gunsmith, so it is now smooth.
Replaced the hammer spring with a softer one
Replaced the recoil spring with a softer one.
Now it runs good. =)

Didn't even know they made such a thing.  Old thread, so I guess I never ran across it before.

What kind of groups do these things shoot?

Do the parts interchange with CZ parts - if something broke and I needed to replace it?

Magazines interchange?

I don't think I've ever seen one at a gun store or gun show, did they import a lot of them?
I just keep wasting time and money on other brands trying to find/make one shoot like my P07 and P09.  What is wrong with me?

Another Zombie Thread, raised from the dead.  ;D

Generally, available in Canada only.  Very few make their way into the USA.
Mostly compatible with Cz Parts and Magazines.

From what I've read, these are as accurate as any Cz.

I’m a CZ clone fanatic so I’d love to have a Norinco clone, especially that two tone.  8)

A veteran shooter I know had praises for the gun's price-to-performance ratio, which is what steered me to look for this  gun as my wallet could not afford a CZ.

A local gun store had 10+ units of this two tone version, so I ordered one the soonest as the price just really fits my budget... :D
A known gunstore here also sells the railed version, called the NZ85BR


I found this thread before I purchased the gun, so I would really like to thank the OP and Admin for this repository of knowledge which guided me to purchasing and tuning my gun.
Now, I am happy with it.

Cheers and Stay Safe! =)
