I have ALWAYS went out of my way, made an effort, SPENT MORE..to avoid China crap, much, MUCH more than anyone Ive ever met. One of the first things I told my gf of five years now..DONT BUY ME ANYTHING MADE IN CHINA, PERIOD.
As much as humanly possible, Ive avoided. Several years back, when it was time for me to start using optics..I searched a LONG time to see what was out there, who made it, and what the costs where. As for red dots..Im still not aware of a U.S manufacturer. But, I bought a new Steiner..USA made PXi. GREAT. LOVE IT. Then I bought a Holosun. Been great-love it. There were simply no choices to be had. So, Ive made MY bones, so to speak, over not buying China shit unless all there is is China shit.
The POINT I am trying to make here is this: IM done, period. Other choices or not, ILL do without before buying another China made item. If you, or anybody else here, cant NOW see & understand the HAVOC that those Godless, rat/bat/dog/cat eating bastards have put the world & the United States thru- then you are an idiot most extreme. If you, or anybody else here, cant NOW say "Ok, Im not supporting those goblins anymore".. you might need to check your patriotism..or lack of, rather. I fully understand a company cant literally pull out of business there overnight. But are you WORKING towards that now? Are you even discussing that now? Do you see the NEED to abandon those commie fvcks, now? OR..are you STILL just worried about making YOUR money & the world & America be damned?
And- to those of you in the market for optics-are YOU, STILL going buy a China made optic, or, do you see the need to boycott them at all costs?
If not- WHAT has to happen before you do? What WILL it take before you put other things first before savings $100 or so on a freakin optic? Or anything?
From this point on- I consider any purchase of ANYTHING made in China to be aiding & abetting an enemy of the United States. I consider it anti-American.
I myself, just got a precision rifle built and am currently looking at scopes. Looked at scopes so long now I know them by heart. MANY scopes that fit MY personal requirements from China- way cheaper. PISS ON THEM. Ill do without before buying one.
So, disagree all you want. Aid & abet the enemy all YOU want. I aint doing it, and I fervently hope Trump makes it to where no one can afford NOTHING coming from there, & soon.
