In my career I watched brand names chase lower manufacturing costs by moving production from country to country. It always follows a pattern. Initially the new place makes only the most basic versions of the product and badly at that. But knowledge, experience and time eventually win out. In the relatively simple stuff I was involved with, tennis racquets, golf equipment, clothing and footwear, the learning curve is upwards of 20 years. I expect it to be longer than that for firearms. But rest assured, Turkey will get there if there continues to be a market for firearms. It is inevitable.
Many of us can remember when "made in Japan" was synonymous for junk. It's been a long time since that was true. I remember when China couldn't make a t-shirt. Now they make the most sophisticated technology imaginable. The only thing that is required is that a market for the product continues to exist.
