LG - while I'm not "rootin'" for any gunt to have been made anywhere or by anyone in particular, I'd not be at all dismayed to find it was made in France. There is a very fine gunmaking tradition there and very fine materials. Once the French learned to make steel, about 75-100 years after the Brits, they made good stuff. They grew some awesome trees, too. Oh, and they grew some craftsmen of the first stripe. Style and design are the issues, not workmanship or materials.
