I don't know if it's as simple as that OC. I don't think the traditional low end American gun industry held back Parker, Fox, Lefever etc. Good quality usually ultimately gets recognized in the market place. I remember when Japan made crap cars and "MADE IN JAPAN" was shorthand for other crappy products. Hasn't been like that for a long time. It will depend on whether the Turks get serious about quality or choose to exploit the lower end only.
