Benelli M4 vs Clones

North Sylva deleted my post and locked their thread because they cant handle the truth so I'll post it in this thread since it's in response to the exact same video.
I've dealt with thousands of Turkish firearms while working in the industry and I've dealt directly with the factories in Turkey producing these firearms.
Bolt faces and bolt lugs cracking/shearing off.
Broken extractors/springs breaking or where they attach cracks/breaks,
Rails the bolt carrier slides on are poorly machined or parts cracking/shearing off from less than 100 rounds of use.
Internal dimensions of the receivers are out of spec and sometimes warped.
Rough machining inside the receivers causing the BCG's to drag causing FTF's or FTE's.
Many parts are made of mystery alloy metals with very poor heat treatment.
Poor quality anodizing and chrome lining of barrels where some have a long scratch down the entire length of the barrel.
Poorly cut chambers with tooling marks still visible.
Rear sight screw holes stripped or cross threaded from someone forcing them in.
EVERY single part of the trigger groups have failed solely or in combination with other parts of the trigger packs, weak sprigs or springs with different spring rates.
Improperly sized gas ports, partially drilled, gas ports blocked, gas port burrs not cleaned up.
There is absolutely no god damn way a Turkish M4 clone can hold a candle at all to a real Benelli M4 any day of the week, it doesn't matter how much flair you slap on it the bones of the clone are made from cursed mystery metal which is best described as "Chinesium".
Now watching people blatantly shill the garbage Turkish products their friends stores are importing in mass and trying to flood the market with because people should be grateful these are still for sale just really pisses me off.
Not all of the Turkish firearms develop problems but you have to be well aware that you are purchasing something made without certainty compared to many other options that are available.
The failure rate of Turkish firearms are just way too high to recommend any of them with a a clear conscious.
It cost peanuts to produce Turkish made shotguns and they sell for easily 200-300% profit margins on average.
If you just want a casual looks cool gun your life doesn't have to depend on go for it but realistically expect something to probably go wrong by the time you hit 500 rounds through it.
Sourcing replacement parts may be tricky as well if retailers don't have a pile of broken guns on hand to pull spare parts off of to repair yours.

Yup.
The importers and stores are grifting.
Surprise to absolutely no one. They can’t mark up a Benelli as much so they talk it down.
You know what they say though a fool and their money are easily parted so, enjoy the cope guns fools

OK my guy, time to put down the reefer.

I have no doubt on any given day a number of turkish m4 clones could possibly perform as well as a real benelli m4. There is no way in hell over multiple years and tens of thousands of rounds a single turkish m4 clone holds up as well as a real benelli m4...
