Norinco Guns, any experience with them?

I am thinking about buying a 45 from a guy. It is a Norinco 1911. I have no experience with Norinco. I was wondering what to expect in terms of quality etc. Any comments welcome.
Thanks

Hope that helps.

Crude fit and finish, however as stated they seem to ****ion for the most part. If price point is for you look at Star, they are Spanish made, and desent quailty for the money.

Thanks for the info guys, I just wanted to make sure I didn't buy a piece of crap! I had made in China pencils before and they were crap so I was worried.
