Remington, Marlin, DPMS, Starline brass, bullets, powder, primers, M1 Garand's, Leupold
I figured these are my high impact items since I have about 25K invested in them

crap! - now I have to pay attention at the store. I was only boycotting French stuff (except bic lighters) now I have to make sure everything I buy is Made in the USA!

No problem except the headache I'll get from concentrating so much. However, we do buy our gas at an S&S which supposedly is totally US product.

Acctually, it's pretty hard to find anything made in America, these days. But, if you look, you can find a few things.

Like Shaun, most of the things I distribute in my line of work are still US made. We do use some SATA spray guns (Germany) and some Iwata (Japan) Mosty good 'ole Binks and Graco equipment.

I look at labels on everything I buy at the store. A lot of China. The quality is crap to boot. Not too good a deal when it falls apart.

Nice shade's you wear, Shaun. I wear Oakley's and was glad to see that they are American. I use Exxon gas most the time since there's one next to me. I also have a Texaco card....but they recently merged with Shell. I didn't know that until they suddenly sent me a Shell card as a replacement. So another U.S. petro producer has been bought out by.

My beer is definitely American. Even my George Killian's Red is just an American knock-off of an Irish beer I think.

I use Sunoco Gas myself. Get the credit card, and you can get 4% rebate on gas and 1% rebate on all other stuff.

I try to buy tools made in the US too.
