The local Red Wing dealer is down to about 3 shoes on the shelf that are made in USofA. Warned the owner last week when those are gone, I will be, too. The Chicom (always call them exactly what they are, Chinese communists, an enemy of freedom loving people all over the planet, lest people forget and think more along the lines of something from the show "Kung Fu", wise, gentle, peaceloving, and all that Hollywood BS) stuff costs just a bit less, but, has to be profitable as hell for him.
A Chicom double? I remember the Chicom model 37 and 870 clones on the shelf at the local independant dealer. Yuk. Does anyone really question whether a legit Remington 870 or Ithaca 37 is better than it's Chicom clone? And, perhaps a better question-why in hell would you buy a gun made in a country that forbids almost all who live there from ever owning one?
Best,
Ted
