Regardless of any improvement they may have had, Yildiz is made by Muslims in Erdogan's Turkey. I'm sure they and him appreciate the U.S. supported funding. What a brilliant way to establish large cash reserves on the backs of a well-known American passion for shooting, and gun ownership.

This is why I will not buy a Turkish made gun!

ib & jburg,

Yes there are Muslims in Turkey but Turkey is a secular country just like the USA, all religions are allowed.
Turkey is also a member of the UN, NATO, The World Bank, and G20.
In Operation Desert Storm they sent their soldiers to fight right along side our GI's against Sunni Muslims.
They are also pretty dam good at making precision parts. Up until last year they manufactured many of the parts for our Lockheed Martin F-35 II fighters.
They also spend a lot of their money in the USA buying the aircraft and other military equipment from the USA.

Searun,

I said I will not buy. I did not say you should not buy!

It's free world, you are free to do what you want, but I prefer to not to purchase Turkish guns.
