Personally, I don't care if it's an import or not. My questions go like this: Is it what I'm after, does it shoot, do the parts interchange, and can I afford it? If I answer yes, to those then it copmes home and will be shot, and shot as often as I can do it. That's how I enjoy my firearms, by granting the one wish a gun has, which is to be shot.
Attitude: it takes 43 muscles to frown, 17 to smile...and 3 for proper trigger squeeze.
The olive branch is considered a symbol of peace, and good will. Last time I checked, it's still a switch.
