      I love to buy American when I can, but refuse to buy products that are inferior just because they are American made.

      Agreed. Buying inferior just to Buy American is ignorant and eventually counterproductive because it rewards inferior goods just because they were made here. Inferior products deserve to become extinct.

        Buy American Guns!

        Buying American is just not as simple as it sounds. However it does fit on a bumper sticker. We live in a very different world with a global economy and technology that allows commerce from all ends of the globe.

          Buying American is one of the reasons I chose a Kahr.

            Always try to buy USA 1st. Next is ABC (Anywhere But China). Have an old Volvo but that was when USA car quality was poor and no airbags. Could never stand the idea of buying a military type firearm from any country that may have have used it against my Dad in WW11 or any other war against any of our troops. NO AK's or older bolt action German or Japanese military. I am not perfect. I have a 42 year old Walther PP bought new for $80=2 weeks wages and a 35 year old Franchi 12 ga. auto. Also a Rossi copy of a Winchester pump .22 Everything else Remington Savage Colt Ruger Kahr H&R Marlin S&W KelTec

              I can remember when I was a youngster and worke din the family business and wen the transistor radios (pocket ones) first came out. They were all made back then in Japan with a sticker on them that said made in Japan. I was kinda oung to understand but I certinly remember one ol timer who fought against the japs in the war and he was a great customer. When he seen we had a big line of transistor radios, he ask to see one as he was interested in one but when he turned it around and seen that sticker on it, he slammed it down and walked out. It was along time before he came back in. I understand that fully today back then I didn't. German products faired no better bck then either, U best not have ever owned a german bmw, mercedes, back then. today though as we aqll know, it is a changing world. Take away the ABC stuff out of ll these stores, be they wal mart. lowes, menards, Target and u could fit the American made products in the back of a semi trailer. Ask some of these stores if it is Americna made and they look at u like ur some kind of fokking nut.

              One of our bigger store in the mall in the area sold nutting but leather jackets. I believe it was called Wilson leathers.. good quality ones to. I once went in there and said show me an American made leather jacket that u sell, for I am intereted. THEY COULDN'T do it. Then the ol sales pitch omes on . One told me the rerason they don't sell American leathe rproducts is that the foregn cattle are not around barbed wire so the hides don't get scarred up like they do in America. WTF. There might indeed be a tad of truth to that even but WTF how stupid do they thik we are..

                Well Jocko, you can always come down here and shoot one of my nephew's Texas longhorns, for a fee, and you could make a couple jackets yourself..... along with a lot of jerky.

                  I'd rather ride one than shoot it. Jocko probably wouldn't want to make his sheep jealous.

                    Wow, ego? I may be misunderstanding your meaning... but I buy whatever I want/need/can afford but I always regarded others' American-only preference with respect, as a show of patriotism.
