or possibly a Zionist-designed IMI Galil in 7.62x51.

Silly me I thought they were Israeli made...

So lets just rename this thread "Other than the Yankee Imperialists"

I don't think the u.s. is even in the top three.

1. Germany
2. Switzerland
3. Italy

 

[The Lone Haranguer]

Austria and the Czech Republic. (Glock and CZ, respectively.)

My favorite handgun, the Glock, is German designed.

Close......Austrian


some folks may want to check out Philip Ollendorf or Peter Hofer from Austria for the finest rifles ever made today

some may call me crazy for this but

TURKEY

I think the BHP should count: While is based on a Browning design, the final product was the work of Dieudonné Saive. Among other things Saive developed the staggered magazine used to increase the High-Power's capacity. In addition, it was developed for FN in response to a French requirement for a new service sidearm.

So, Belgium is a definite.

Switzerland: SIG

Germany: Walther, Mauser, H&K, just to mention a few.

Italy: Beretta - they've been making guns since 1526; they seem to have figured it out fairly well.

Austria: I many not be a Glock fan, but the concept is brilliant. Steyr for exquisite rifles.

Great Britain: For an anti-gun country, they sure produce some beautiful shotguns and rifles.

Browning designed the gun, it was just altered slightly due to his death, it was still double stack and had the same design, he basically just added a hammer to it and altered it slightly. It's still a Browning design. Just because he sold the design to a foreign company to make doesn't make it a foreign design.

If the last Mazda RX-7 was designed in Southern California by an American working for Mazda, would that make it RX-7 an American design?

Browning was hired by FN to design the basis of the P-35 for them to the specs of a French contract. He didn't complete the design before his death and it was completed by a Frenchman. It was originally built in Belgium. Hi-Powers which were imported by the Browning Arms company, were built in Portugal.

I think you would correctly credit this to Belgium or even France, before you could credit it the the US
