I had one years ago, think I paid like $85.00 for it new.  Cheaper made version of the Browning.  Funny you mention the loose barrel, as mine did the same thing.  Mine was reliable, just not very accurate.  Ended up trading it for some other gun I had to have at the time..

 I knew norinco produced a 22 take down.  Are you guys talking semi-auto or pump?

Hey guys,
  I know this thread is a few months old but having first hand experience, I thought id reply.
I own one of the Norinco ATds for years now. Ive used it mostly for squirrel hunting here in the swamps, I have used it to paddle my pirogue out of the swamps at 2am!  Anyhow, I have put hundreds of rounds through it with no problems. Im not sure what you mean about the barrel shaking loose but Ive never experienced it.
 The only problem I have had was breaking the extractor when I took it down, but that was because I didnt pull the bolts back slightly. My own fault.  from what I can gather its hard to get Norinco parts now for some reason, and Im not sure if browning parts fit...
   I would buy it, Dave
