RE: Is quality what it used to be??
A lot of good points have been put on the table and I have to say I agree pretty much with all of them. I guess my main beef isn't when I buy something at a lower price and it is not as good. I should expect that. My problem is when I purchase something that is supposed to be a top of the line item and still get burned by a dropping standard of quality(thats what the on time feeders brought to mind). I atleast still hope for the pay more-get more,pay less-get less standard.
I do have to take a small issue with the lower price of Savage rifles though. May not be a work of art but anything that accurate and durable is quality to me. As much as I hate to see the model 70 go the savage sure killed them just as dead!
