Chinese motto, if you can't beat em, join em.....that will beat them.

How damn ignorant can one be. We forbid the sale of ITAR Technology and technical data to China. How in the hell do we have counterfeit parts in the ITAR system?
The chinese should not have access to any of these items period. That they do tells me there are violations under the ITAR

Meanwhile because of ITAR I can't buy a Leupold scope in the States and have it shipped to Canada. Skewed priorities maybe? Monashee

How in the hell does this happen?
#1. Commies should not be making parts or anything else for the American Military.
