New 1911

[SimonRL]

I’d put the Turkish Army up against the Phillippine or Brazilian Army any day of the week.

Completely irrelevant to the topic at hand.

Given that people have never had an issue with 1911s built in the Philippines or Brazil but crap on Turkish ones, perhaps it is.

I have Brazilian and Philippino made 1911s. Both are ok. Nuthin fancy. No Turkish ones.

It has nothing to do with anything other than my personal and horrible experience with Turkish shotguns. Never mine though because I never owned a Turkish shotgun.

I Would buy a Tisas before a Hi-Point. That counts for something right ?
Frankly though before I would spend $400 on a Tisas I would add another $400 and get a KImber or an SA. If I was looking for another 1911. Which I'm not. Unless it's one of those ones made by Wilson Combat for the spec ops guys. But that ain't happening anytime soon so.


Carry on.

i never had a Brazilian 1911, (would that have been a Taurus ???), but at least 2 from the Philippines, (RIA), and they were very good, and slightly higher priced than a Tisas.

Carry on.

sorry to hear you had bad luck/issues with the Turkish shotguns.

but as it goes too, i have read of others having issues/bad luck with many other firearms, on the various gun sites.

my thoughts are, every once in a while, a bad batch gets out of the factory, maybe sometimes more than that one batch, until someone wakes up at the factory.

same can be said with just about any auto/motorcycle maker.......everyone has duds, ticks off customers and gets a bad rep for a long time.

It’s not a bad batch. In the shotgun world, Turkish shotguns, all of them, are notoriously bottom rung. It’s more accurate to say an occasional decent one pops up. Still, the one you got that runs is still made with cheap parts and will eventually fail.
