I have long been a fan of the value purchase in Turkish made firearms.
There are two very fine copies or "clones" of the CZ-75 that are made in Turkey. The AR-24 made by Sarsilmaz (not quite a clone, more of a copy with some changes made) and the Canik55 Stingray which appears to be more of a clone.
MKEK Girsan also makes a Berretta 92 clone that is 100% parts interchangeable.
Here is the question...Canik55 has a fairly new pistol out, the TP9. From the looks of it, the gun appears to be a copy of the P 99. Anyone know?? Is this a reverse engineered copy? Are the internals the same as the Walther?
If you look in the right spots, the Turk pistols seem to sell in the low $300 dollar range, and for the quality I have found, these are a really good value.
A true knock-off of a Walther P 99, for around $300 would seem to be a great value.
