I have Japanese and Korean BSS guns in my safe. The Korean ones suffer from poor wood assembly. Screw holes in the wood are poorly drilled. The metal work is identical. My understanding is that the Japanese did not farm out any metal work to Korea. Just the assembly of the wood. I think it was an experiment that only started with some very basic work. I don't know who passed that along to me but it was likely a member here.
