The guy that wrote that article is crazy as a loon. Comparing a Tisas to a Staccato.As shown in the article he can't even spell Staccato.
A better comparison to a Tisas would be a Rock Island.
But the Turks have done well in the low end rifle and shotgun market. I'm sure if they keep the price down low enough they will do well in the handgun market.

My son has one it's a nice pistol! Be interesting when he gets a bunch more rounds down range to see what issues if any arise.

I can't speak for the Turkish pistols as I don't have one. I can speak for my Hatfield SAS 12 gauge simi shotgun. I bought it years ago. My old Mossy 500 messed up right before a dove opener. Funds were limited. I bought the Hatfield and use it. A friend liked it enough to buy a 20 gauge. Now I don't do competitions so I don't need a trillion$ firearm but for the budget guys like me they do fine.
A while back I had one It was a sar arms I think it was called a B9P
It was like a big copy of a CZ if I remember correctly
Anyway I ran a thousand plus rounds of NATO 9 mm through it never even a hiccup not even close The gun was like $220 or something like that The sportsman's guide was selling them
It was as reliable as any firearm I've seen
Ha... i would take any of my three Tisas 1911's over the Kimbers I have owned... They are as reliable and as accurate and any of the Springfield or colt 1911's I have owned as well. I own Several of the Stoeger STR9 9mms and love them... I recommended both of these types of pistol to my friends and everyone of them have thanked me for recommending them after they bought one and ran it...
I also own a Weatherby Orion O/U that I been using for skeet... made in Turkey... thousands of rounds through it from 4 years of skeet and have not had the first problem with it. Great gun. I will probably be buying one of the Weatherby Orion SxS next
I also had a girsan mc,p 35 hi power clone
It was better than the comparable Springfield that was two or $300 more
Girsan is Turkish

Like anything else there are good and bad Turkish guns. I bought a Canik 9mm as an experiment. It has been an excellent pistol. I recently bought a Turkish clone of the Benelli M4. It's impressive, especially for the price. I also have a Turkish clone of a trench style shotgun that has been good as well. For the money, they are hard to beat.
That would be awesome turkey pistol jf if I had more money than sense
I just bought yet another gun made in Turkey... an Inglis P35. Browning High Power clone. took it to the range today and love it... not the first failure of any kind and shoots great. incredible gun for 429...
I always wanted a hi power. I saw those the other day and was very tempted to buy one.I just bought yet another gun made in Turkey... an Inglis P35. Browning High Power clone. took it to the range today and love it... not the first failure of any kind and shoots great. incredible gun for 429...
For the money they are hard to beat if you want a classic... if you are just looking for a high cap 9mm, there are a lot of choices in that price range. I have plenty of plastic guns and I like the classics personally. I will say, if you can go and hold one in your hand. I did this and it sold it for me but for someone who has big hands, they might find the grip small and the trigger too close to the grip in comparison to something glock like...
I have plenty of high cap "modern" pistols. That is one of the reasons I haven't ever bought one. I don't really "need" it. My quandary is do I buy a copy or get the real thing. The Springfield is supposedly improved some of the original's flaws.
I certainly do not need it either... The Inglis is the same as the Springfield... It does not have a magazine disconnect so the magazine will drop free and it will fire without a magazine inserted... I have read that the the magazine disconnect was a requirement of the Belgium army at the time but it has been done away with now. It also have the "non bite" hammer instead of the spur. I did not have any "bites" from the hammer so I guess the hammer works that way as well.
Just something fun to play with I guess till I finally get tired of it and want something else...

Sorry about that... just go ahead and get you one, you will not regret it.
I had an original Belgium made Browning Hi-Power. Man I wish I never sold that gun.

I have a Springfield 1911 and two Sig 1911's that I would walk past without thought for my MAC 1911 DS9…
Turkey is a terrorist nation. They harbor terrorist and grow them. As an American veteran, I vehemently refuse to knowingly purchase, endorse or in any way support anything from there.

Dou you support Lockheed, Raytheon, General Dynamics, and Boeing?
Every government is a terrorist organization.
Have you really thought about that statement very much? How far do you take it? what about stuff made in China?... where does the oil come from that your car runs on? most things for sale in this country are produced in countries that hate America or have people in them who hate America. Pakistan is consider an Ally of the US and of Nato. Certainly there are people in that country (and government probably) who support terrorism but could not the same be said for the US? there are people in the USA who support terrorist as well... There are people born and raised here in the US that hate America and would love to see it collapse and fight against it. You could even say the same for the people robbing this country blind and letting in all the illegals and who do not uphold the laws of the nation we live in... It is your right to not buy something from a particular country but we should admit that we all buy stuff from countries that either directly support terrorism or have people in them that support terrorism.
As far as we can. And some of us don't have to dwell on the statement much at all. At 70 years old I used to be able to buy American made in most things. I can't do that anymore and it's damaged my country and the working class. I can't buy a TV, a phone, a computer, a camera, or many other things made in America. And if I took all the foreign parts off my Harley; it probably wouldn't start. That doesn't mean I have to accept it. Thank God we now have a President that doesn't accept it either. MAGA.
But I can buy American made guns. I'm a Veteran also, a Patriot and I support @10mm4me for his views. We need more like him.
