Hey Bubba, I agree. Some of these "BUY AMERICAN" Remington guys here, don't realize that Remington subs a lot of their parts south of the border and then stamps Made in the USA. I can't recall the Mexicans making anything better than the Japs. Mexican cars?, Mexican electronics? Mexican machine tools? Mexican tacos, ok there is one! I have owned both brands, and there isn't one Remington that I would take over the same, in Browning. Just look at the autoloaders. Remington's should be called the autojammer. Have you ever slid the action of a BPS and copared it to the 870? Or cycled an A-5 and compared it to an 1100? (a bit closer) Then a last look at the resale value!!!!
