Ottoman Turks were first to invent small arms but Germans make the best quality today

I agree. Germans make the best quality.

Israel, United States, and Europe.

Honory mention: Some Russian weapons.

Israil I believe the most proliferated in conflicts around the world, especially the latin American ones

US is top, in fact many of these other countries you listed don't even really design much on their own they often take ideas and concepts from American firearm designs. The only European firearm company that I think came out with an innovative design was Belgium's FN with their Scar platform. Prime example, H&K top manufacturer of firearms from Germany their HK416 and 417 design is borrowed from the American Ar-15 design. As for performance and quality no doubt German firearms are high quality. Also many of American firearms have been battle tested and proven to be good rifles.

I would put the list 1. USA, 2. Germany 3. Debatable (Italy, Russia, Switzerland, Belgium, etc)

Colt, Kel-Tec, Mossberg, Ruger, Remington, Springfield, LWRC, Daniel Defense, Knights Armament, S&W, Troy Industries, Noveske Rifleworks, etc all are quality manufacturers.

You don't rate CZ? CZ 75 pistol has been the most copied design, by pretty much all the countries listed above (inc Israel), and CZ rifles are excellent.
