Eddie B's still turns out something of a decent style occasionally, but it's all strictly Chinese made sadly.

I guess that doesn't bother me as much as it does some folks; it's a world economy, like it or not. Would I rather it was made here? Sure. But I'll be the first to admit I know nothing about trade balances and stuff like that except that it matters. As long as the quality is there I'll live with it.

I agree, it allows us be able to purchase some higher quality products we might not be able to otherwise. My Parker Reproductions were made in Japan, they seem to be good quality. A current Parker Reproduction of the same quality but made in the US? I doubt I could afford it. SXS shotguns really cannot be built in the US anymore unless they're higher priced or boutique guns.
