Misc ? From TNA: Remington Clone Turkish Made, Canadian Speced?

https://youtu.be/vZhtvfP0Igw?si=LoancFJ2gEN-8gBq

True North Arms has commissioned a Turkish manufacturer to make a prototype clone-correct, parts interchangeable Remington 870 clone. The idea is to have a better price point then American 570s while maintaining or exceeding parts quality, and allowing the use of variable ammo tubes, including the longer ones allowed by it being manual action in combination with variable length of barrels, including very short ones that still allow the firearm to exceed the minimum Canadian overall length. The entire Remington 870 ecosystem of parts would be available, as the fellow form TNA demonstrates as he mixes and matches parts from the clone and original. TNA is looking for feedback on the interest in this, as well as if it should be exactly cloned, or built up a bit in places known to wear on the 870. Admins, I'm not a TNA representative, I just enjoy their videos. Thanks!

This is a fantastic idea!!

I hope the quality is up to it, but I rather suspect that like China, they can build good stuff if they want to. (SKS, m305, etc)

Apparently Turkish military firearms are quite good. Shotguns are owned by the general public, so there are way more manufacturers, some of them with iffy QC. From the sound of it, TNA is working with a good one; hopefully these will be more like the Turkish MP5 clones, which are reportedly pretty good. Time will tell.
