[QUOTE="manitou, post: 2963956, member: 105280"] Oh come on... anybody that spends more than a couple hours a year shooting can testify that the quality and accuracy of factory firearms are light years ahead of those from forty years ago. The realization of a "sub-MOA" rifle was the (nirvana) gold standard fifty years ago... and less. Today, even many inexpensive factory rifles are less than 1/2" shooters. The idea that: "they don't make guns like they used to" goes right along with the mentality that "they don't make cars like they used to"... whereas a car in the 1970s with 80,000 miles was spent and ready for selling off or the junkyard. This mentality is best affirmed by (mentally) old guys rocking in chairs on the front porch. Do some importers put out junk? Yes they do. We also have a LOT more choices of firearms and optics than existed decades ago. [/QUOTE]
