Quote from: Rzrbac on March 22, 2020, 10:37:55 PMI've tried to do that for awhile. Many times you are hard pressed to find made in USA items. Even if it's not made in the USA, I'll pick any other country over China. Hope consumers make a statement with their pocketbooks and send China's economy to the basement.

That's a shame, there's some good folks right here in the US that could and should be making them.

Quote from: LaLongbeard on March 22, 2020, 11:24:23 PMI always try to buy American made. My gun my turkey vest all my calls and my shells made right here. But it's hard to buy only American, you can hardly find a pocket knife not made in China let alone most household goods. If anything at all can come out of this maybe the US can stop depending on the Chinese for their cheap junk. 50 years ago hardly anything wasn't made here. Steel, clothing tools all American made. No reason we can't do it again.

One thing i said to myself is that do i really need that made in china Stevens 410 Nope. Do i need those china primos calls or the new made in china bottomland clothes, nope.Now I have guns, clothes that are not made in china, my calls the last few years come from makers on here.If you don't need to support the china goods then I don't.
