The Rainmaker, SASS #11631 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 The Turkish guns work just fine with a little judicious "smoothing". Big problem is NO PARTS! If someone knows of a place to get parts, I'd love to know. Been using a hammerless Tedna (marketed by Zenith then sold through CDNN) for a few years now with no problems, just hope it never breaks!

Chantry Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 I have a friend who bought one and likes it. He uses sometimes for skeet, sporting clays and 5 Stand. The forend feels a little funny, not really a splinter forend or beaver tail forend, but there is enough there to protect the hand from the heat generated by BP ammo. It won't be competitive right out of the box, but no gun at that price point will be. As far as I know, Rock Island Armory makes all of their guns in the Philippines. As for the CZ branded and Turkish made shotguns, all the ones (SxS, O/U and semi-auto) I've seen have been pretty good, especially at their price point. I think the build quality on my Bobwhite G2 is pretty good and if I were looking for another hammer gun SxS, or buying a semi-auto or O/U, CZ would be at the top of the list.
