Yeah, unfortunately quite a bit is. It's sad to see. That being said I still enjoy supporting their made in USA stuff. But thats about all I buy from them and they're getting real proud of it.

Exactly what I was alluding to. They've about priced themselves out. Was in the market for one of their cases just to have a good case for my sxs's, something that does the justice to them, but to me a $400 shotgun case isn't cost effective. I am very happy to see that Boys has taken some interest in the USA made market and had Gokey make some cases and bring manufacturing back to the USA, at least for some of the line.
