Made in China?

[GREEN607]

To my knowledge, ALL of the gun companies and ammo companies, also have their ball caps made in China.

Most, if not all of the benchrest shooting sponsors and ranges that have hats made up.... also use 'made in China' caps.

It's the nature of the beast, in this world economy.

I tired to get rid of most of my china made hunting gear. Nearly impossible. A good american made blaze orange vest is hard to find. Columbia (made in China) Did get rid lots of stuff i found out I did not need.

I like a good cheap item, I don't like a bad cheap item. Don't own an Ipad, I would still buy one over a Coby tablet.

I might be in the minority here but I don't like the NRA much either. They beg for money more than the widow and orphans fund for the local police that call the house once a month. I finally had to put the begger email from the NRA into the spam folder.

The comments need to be toned down in here. Any more and you'll get a vacation.

All the arguing in this thread about where stuff was made and it is all being typed on some electronic device that was not made in the USA

I like the NRA, I just don't appreciate them sending me a MADE IN CHINA hat to express their appreciation for my monetary gift given to a "as American as apple pie" organization such as the National Rifle Association. Don't get me wrong, I have owned Mercedes Benz, Lexus, Toyota, BMW and many more foreign cars. Fine quality, loved them all. I just want consumers to consider where things are made and who gets paid HERE in the US for what we buy. I love my Italian made Beretta, fine gun! I also have a deep appreciation for the workmanship on my S&W weapons made right here in the US. In closing, SHAME ON YOU NRA! Give the business to a local company next time. And I appologize for getting a bit testy earlier.

I do build my own computers if that means anything. But you are right, most of the components are from overseas.

The NRA called a month or so ago,wanting to sign me up for a extended membership that included a free gift(I don't remember what it was.)I told them I would renew my membership when the time came but to please keep their gifts that were made in china and use the money they saved to support our 2nd Amendment Rights.I finished the conversation with "If you want to send me a gift that was made in the U.S. I would gladly pay extra for it"

I know making hats (for example) isn't as high tech as building electronics,ect. but it is still honest work that pays money and creates jobs and people with jobs pay taxes.

Well said citizen!

Just pass on the "free" gift next time and instead go to the section of their store titled "Made in America." Two birds with one stone...It's a donation to the NRA, and you're supporting American workers/businesses.
