Let me tell you, trailer, the old adage "they just don't make them like that anymore" applies to guns more than just about anything else in the world. With very few exceptions, today's guns are not nearly as well made as they were forty years ago. For example, you will never find a production rifle that is as high quality as the old-style Mannlicher Schoenauers! You can still buy a gun that is as nice, but it will be custom or semi-custom throughout, and will cost you an arm and a leg!
