Deker 3,453 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Not the Air Rifles! I understand these are CZ "copies" , and apparently the 5 and 9 shot metal mags fit CZ (not sure which models). Never heard of them before but they seem cheap, complete package of rifle scope mod £325 synthetic, £245 wood! Also, and very interesting, replacement stock synthetic or wood £50. Does that fit CZ????? I know nothing of these rifles, they may be complete pants for all I know but that begs some questions! All I know is Highland Outdoors seems to import them, Anyone throw anymore light on these? Quote Link to post
halamrose 24 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 I think they only have the model 1 style trigger. Quote Link to post
paulus 26 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 the mags do fit and the action is a copy of the cz, the first imports were very poor with the actions being as rough as old boots. the ones now are far, far better and are a cheap alternative to the cz, although personally i would go for a second hand cz over a new puma all the time.

iana 25 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 I had one of these up untill 2 weeks ago. Now traded in for a 455 varmint. Yes they are cheap but they do exactly what it sais on the tin!! Mine would shoot bunnies at 100 yards no problem. Had mine for nearly a year and never a problem once. Not too sure they would last years but a good starter rifle, for me anyway. Quote Link to post
halamrose 24 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 I assume they are re-branded Norinco going by the JW15 model number and suspect the Sterling ones are the same but I've only seen Puma advertised with 16 inch barrel. Based on CZ model 1 rather than 2 so the trigger would be harder to fettle. Quote Link to post
iana 25 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Trigger is a bit stiff but to be honest with you it was no worse that my new cz455 before I fitted a kit to it!!! Having gone over to the Czech now there is a difference in performance but if you get used to firing the puma I wouldn't knock them. The puma is like owning an entry level fiat, the cz with the kit fitted is like a top of the range Audi. Quote Link to post
halamrose 24 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Looks like I'm right about Puma being same as norinco: http://www.gunstar.co.uk/Rifle/Norinco-JW-15-E-BOLT-ACTION-gun-for-sale-gs67957.aspx Quote Link to post
