This lonely ugly sucker said "Take me home home....I'm lonely"...lol. Thought the rack number was cool....is there an actual model for these?

More pictures....marks..  Come off it already

China made maybe a dozen different 22 rifles that got imported for a short time...the JW series. That one you show could be a early predecessor of the series.  Kinda has same lines, rear sight as a Norinco JW-8.

This is my JW-15...basically a Chinese copy of a CZ/Brno or Cz452, it's close enough it even shares the same mags.

More pictures...marks... Uh-oh......what did I do now???  I havent found very many examples of this one in particular.....looks to be a single shot. Hell...I just hope it works. Either way...one day when I'm allowed a man cave....it'll look good on a wall somewhere...
Your's is sharp.....being magazine fed is even nicer. Shoots well?

Look up a JW-8... it should be pretty close... I think thats a single shot..and make sure it's an early one..late50s-earlly 60s

And yup...shoots great. Thank goodness Cz mags fit...an actual Norinco mag will run 75 bucks.

Neat...  Looks like it was actually a service rifle.

Came in yesterday.  1959 JW-8 is stamped on the barrel. Imported by CAI. I'll get some pics up soon.

Well that clears things right up   


Cool rifle. I love the .22 trainers. It has the famous stock factory /21\ mark (or whatever it means)
