Remember it took the Japs a while to go from "Jap Crap" to top of the auto and electronic fields.
As often as this is repeated, there's one problem with it. It's not true.
Japanese businesses initially targeted low-end manufacturing, for export as quick cash generators. Cheap toys and poor quality commodity items flooded the US marked "Made in Japan."
However, their automobiles were well-made from day 1. The car makers were not the same companies, and they had different strategies. Toyota copied Brit sports cars and American Jeeps, and they improved on them if there was a reason. Nissan/Datsun copied the BMW 2002, and their cars were good, from day 1. The same goes for electronics. The Japanese copied European manufacturing, then improved on it.
Japanese electronics and automobiles are not analagous to Turkish shotguns, nor do they have anything to do with cheap stamped-out toys that were "Made in Japan" back in the 1960s (must... resist... gratuitous... Remington... reference...
).
See, the Turkish shotgun makers have had plenty of European, Japanese, and even American products to copy, for decades. Have they learned how to make guns to European standards? Have they (like Japanese automakers) actually improved on them? No.
There's no comparison between making poor versions of a mature product for decades, and improving on, then dominating, auto and electronic markets. Japanese "continual improvement" is not just a meaningless buzz phrase, no matter what Cerberus bean counters think.
Japanese success is the result of specific plans and actions by Japanese business. One cannot assume that, since Japanese cars are good, Turkish shotguns will be. Google "cargo cult." It seems to be a natural human tendency, and as such it can be a common problem in the business world.
A given shotgun, made in Turkey, or anywhere else, might be a POS, or a fine piece. You have to judge them one at a time -- but it's a lot safer to mail-order a B-gun...
