    yeah....out here, even the ones at Wally World are made in USA. In fact, as of late, My Wife and I have noticed more and more things being carried at Walmart that are made in USA.

    I try to buy things made in America, everyone of my guns are made here. Yes it costs more but is usually much better quality.

    Jesus, man. Those jeans are $100/pair. :eek:

    It's very difficult to buy all American but I try as much as possible. Some morning show (GMA?) tried to furnish a house with all American made products and they couldn't do it.
