    The USA has quite different "rules" around "Made in the USA" compared with many other countries. Don't quote me on the exact numbers but to stamp something "made in the USA" it needs 15 or 20% locally added value, whereas most countries require 75 or 80% locally added value. This is why companies like Ziess and Glock etc take all their parts to the US, assemble them there and take the yank consumers for suckers with "Made in the USA".
