Default Gun metals

Hi,
I know it's probably been discussed but help me out here. The only experience I've had with Eastern European guns was many years ago. I shot a single shot NEF .410 brazilian made (I know not Eastern European, but there was no Russian guns then) at skeet. When we took it to a gunsmith to lighten the trigger, he said plainly the metal was junk and it would be dangerous to fiddle with it. Another instance, a friend bought a shotgun for his son, NEF also, and the safety would not work. Now with all these Russian guns like Baikel, CZ from Czech Republic, Huglu and others from Turkey, are the metals they use any good? Are they any better than our standards?
