I have owned one Turkish gun and I sold it after I couldn’t get the shell out and I have the chambers checked and they were way off but this was a long time ago. I thought they got better. I went to Argentina two years ago and for club guns so they had rows of Automatic and over and under Turkish guns the outfitter told me they lasted about a month and then they tried to fix them and fix them and they were beyond repair to put it in comparison. He told me a Beretta lasts a year and after about two years, they can’t even rebuild them anymore, but that’s surely a lot longer than the month and he told me they try everything they could to get them working and they are very good down there, but they were beyond repair he told me the receivers metal head stretched out, so even if they repaired the parts, it would not functionand we’re going for destruction !!! Because they’re only allowed a certain amount of gunsand these people the outfitter waste nothing ,and you know Argentina is a real workout
Well show me a gun that can take 140,000 shells in 6 months that won't have problems except a high end competition gun and even then it would be questionable. Calculated 6 months shooting every second day at 1500 shells per day and while I haven't been to Argentina I expect they are not shooting target loads.
On another note did I not read on this forum some time ago that Purdey was making parts out of country?
