I think most makers target exports market rather than Turkish domestic market.

There is no need in the market for metal framed, striker fired compact pistols.

Some people prefer metal frame for heavier weight for good balance and less recoil. So main reason is better accuracy.

I think Turks prefer metal frame because we love to kaplama and GRAVÜR İŞLEME the metal frame

As we almost can only buy a pistol we would like to make our pistol goodlooking and long maintaining.

That s different with American,they can buy several of them.

Turkish civil market is too weak thanks to taxes and strict law. ( that's why in Türkiye , illegal converted blank pistols- which are rubbish -are more expensive than real handguns )

Any Turkish company would invest in domestic demand.
How many could they sell if they produced metal framed striker fired?
Moreover Our people buy just steel clones of BHP and CZ 75.

All Turkish production lines are bound to US civil market.

America buys a load of handguns.

They just need make a metal GÖVDE to sell not need much invest.

But i think the real reason is that the metal framed lover in both US and Turkey much prefer the classical 1911/hi-power type.

This has to be profitable for Canik and metal frame striker fire pistols are not really popular in the US therefore very unlikely.

Does Turkiye really have gun control?

In Australia our laws are pretty strict. While in Turkiye many seem to have guns especially in the Karadeniz region and the East.

Is Gun control enforced or is it lax?

A quick reloading shotgun from Turkiye was actually coming to Australia but Australian government did not allowed it to be sold in the country because it counts as rapid fire. To them rapid fire is either semi auto or full auto.

In Türkiye, they should allow ownership of up to 7 pistols by one person like they do with shotguns, they just need to require to have gun safes to keep them safely. This number of guns will satisfy most people. On the other hand, if you want to be a gun reviewer or influencer they can probably make such occupational unlimited gun waivers and this kind of people will remain in dozens and not hundreds. Also, they can probably allow shooting range operators to have some rifles to train enthusiasts. These measures will probably solve all gun gripes of civilians.

In my opinion
That is gun control for good civilians but no for bad guys
Same as any other laws in Turkey

I spent many time and money to get one but some stupid guy had illegal gun easily

Canik is almost total changed to polymer frame TP9 and mete series (besides that canik sfx rival s I mentioned) so I don’t think it should do.
For SARSILMAZ they still have a very large part of metal frame K2/K2000/P8L(compare to the polymer version B6)They should do a metal frame version of SAR9
