Good morning.
China boned this country and the world. I'm trying to not buy Chinese crap.
We have most people in the gun community who agree with this and yet people are still banging down the doors to buy made in China holosun products.
I just dont get it.

Don't forget the iPhone and MacBooks

Which grip is that. My search is not coming up with what you have

I believe Pearce makes these. I get them through "Buds" guns on line.

Good morning all!
I got my SS guide rod and spring in yesterday and got those in the P-07. The guide rod for the P-07 fits a lot better than the guide rod for the Phantom. I have to work on the Phantom a while before I can get it installed. It's like it is a tad bit too long. Has anyone else had this problem? I don't mind taking some off if need be, but it seems unlikely they would have sent me the wrong one or that the one designed for the Phantom would be that difficult to install on purpose.

For my part I had no idea they were a Chinese company until you mentioned it recently. Already have two of their red dots and likely won't buy any more knowing they're Chinese.

I have one that I bought a while back as well. There won't be any more. I do like the RM07 much better anyway.

Guys, I've been killing 1-2 crickets daily in my house. How do I get rid of these things? I sprayed some Ortho Home Defense in the kitchen and around the doors, but it doesn't seem to have done much. I hate bugs so much. Anyone want to come smoosh them for me? You can stay on the futon and eat my snacks!

I use glue boards in my garage to catch them, they are sold to catch mice.
Slide the glue boards in areas that your Kitty can't get to, the glue is very sticky and if the Cat got into it, he/she would not be a happy kitty.
Just sayin', we have two cats.

Yep I've got one too. Bought it a few years ago now.
No issues with it.
Except made in chiiiiina. So I just wont buy any new ones.
As always, to each their own. But imo we have an opportunity to easily tell China to get bent by not buying gun parts made in China.
I'm doing my part. Hopefully we can get thing like they used to be and be proud to only buy made in the USA stuff

If you are avoiding China crap, then you must avoid Walmart, as that is mostly what they sell.
When Sam Walton was alive, he believed in America and American made products.
Since he has been gone, Walmart slowly evolved into Chinamart.

I avoided walmart where I used to live. It was a dangerous place.
My new walmart Is good. I dont usually shop at walmart, I like meijer and kroger batter. But I dont avoid walmart anymore.
It's hard to not buy China made. We have become overun by them

I know, I shop Kroger and Meijer myself, and Wally World too. And very occasionally Super Target.
I do my part to not spend all my money with one company.
In my mind, it helps keep multiple people employed.

I still avoid Walmart like the plague. Amazon can be worse though as at least the stuff from China at Walmart says that its from China. With Amazon, you may get a Chinese knock-off while trying to buy American

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Trigger Time again

Agreed TT

me?? I didn't rep him

I try to buy American and generally fail miserably.

Until the US consumer puts quality over price and manufacturing efficiency over regulations, nothing will much change.

Mexico and China are huge players on our Ag export market. Trade is a two way street. Unfortunately, it’s a one lane gravel road into China and a four lane superhighway coming out.

I try to get American made when I can. If the decision is buy from China or go without and I need it then I get it, but I'd rather get a used American made product over a new China product if possible as well.

It is complicated too. For example, the GMC/Chevy trucks assembled a few minutes from my house are 77th and 85th on this Made in America list. WTH?

Yeah that's weird.

Mcapo, do you have a SS guide rod in your Phantom or is it stock?

I’m curious how they ranked them.

I just checked my Phantom as well. No stainless guide rod.

Do they still make the motors in Canada? That could be a significant factor?
