BURGU METAL

Faith Dogru (F.D.), founder of Burgu Metal, began his career in the defense industry in 1996. He spent 17 years with MKEK, a Turkish defense industry leader.

In 2013, he took his vast experience and founded Burgu Metal, which manufactured nearly all its parts for the defense industry in-house.

In 2019, Burgu Metal started the R&D projects to manufacture 9x19mm pistols, 5.56x45mm AR-15 rifles, and other military and civil purpose products under the brand name BRG. Burgu Metal operates a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility to meet the international defense market’s needs. It will soon break ground on its new, expansive facility to continue growing as a prominent defense industry manufacturer. Burgu Metal continues expanding its production and R&D projects. The company aims to build modern manufacturing facilities in additional countries, particularly the USA.
