Miroku Winchester

[North Country Gal]

I'm all for buying American when I can, but if I have to go with made in Japan to get a rifle that is reliably good out of the box, gun after gun (we have NEVER had a problem with a Miroku made gun) with no issues, no defects, no mods needed, no interruptions in my shooting time, no calls or emails to customer service, I'll gladly pay the higher price tag. I'm so fed up with paying big bucks for some American brands and getting poor QC and new guns that won't even function, right out of the box. Right now, I'd even trust some Italian made guns more than some U.S. brand guns.

I'm with you on that one. Open the box, give it a once over, and then off to the range. So far that has been my experience with the Henry Big Boy, and my 2 Ubertis. Those Winchesters are sure pretty rifles, regardless of the country of origin.

I have no issues with the J A P A N. Its the China thing for me. There in our food as well as everywhere else.
