Part 4: The Modern Norinco Catalog (Industrial & Airguns)

If you visit Norinco’s official website today, you will not find an "AR-15." Instead, the modern catalog focuses on three areas:

| Model | Type | Caliber | Key Features | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | QBZ-191 | Assault Rifle | 5.8×42mm | Modular rail system, improved ergonomics, high-velocity round. | | CS/LR35 | Sniper Rifle | 7.62×51mm NATO | Bolt-action, sub-MOA accuracy, heavy barrel for sustained fire. | | NP-34 | Semi-Auto Pistol | 9×19mm Parabellum | Compact, high-capacity (15+1), inspired by the CZ 75 design. | | M97 | Tacticle Shotgun | 12 Gauge | Pump-action, steel or synthetic stock, breaching barrel option. |
