"Why buy foreign guns when Thai ones meet quality standards?"

[webfact]

 

This was the question posed by Thai media 77kaoded in their headline in a story from Ratchaburi.

 

It was the visit of a former Air Force chief to a state-of-the-art gun factory - Narac Arms Industry Co. Ltd.

 

ACM Manat Wongwat inspected all manner of Thai made weaponry and ammunition that was all deemed to be of international standards.

 

Thai made guns have received poor press in the past despite being the weapon of choice for much murder in the kingdom.

 

It now appears that thanks to improved manufacturing processes the population will be able to kill each other with far greater precision. 

 

Just by buying a home made product.

If experience is anything to go by I have my doubts that they meet international standards.

 

Hint: having Thais auditing who don't understand the international standards and won't give nonconformancies for not meeting clauses of the standard because they are too grieng jai or incompetent is not "meeting international standards".

I wonder how many companies are called “Narac” in Thailand. Quite a popular name is all I’m saying 

[smedly]

yes Thai expertise lol, sure why not "design" and build your own Subs - Cars - Phones - motorbikes - aircraft - TV's etc etc etc .................. well the reason you don't is because you can't, it embarrassing to think the country that claims to be the "hub" of everything has no home designed products of any quality that could be labelled as Thai ........ how's that for a hub
