I believe their barrels are from BBS, but I could be wrong about that.

The time is approaching where nobody will be able to afford American made parts. Americans want to be paid too much money and want tons of benefits, Taxes are rising...Its just simply cheaper to make things overseas.

My wife just ordered the new IPhone 6, shipped directly from China. Crazy how the phone can be produced overseas and shipped across the Ocean and the profit is still higher than if it was made here.

I'm sure more than you know of is made in China

I am not American, but I try to support "our" part of the world, it is not only America that has an ever-growing import problem. But the whole "West". Our greed is our downfall maybe...

When people at Mcdonalds think they deserve $20 an hour, what do you think comes from people who actually have an education and marketable skills?
