I do not think Burris hiding the country of origin at all, so you can select based on your preferences.
It is not practical to build lower priced optics in the US, so noone does it. Burris actually builds a fair amount of stuff for the Steiner brand in the US. Somewhat paradoxically, I think there more Steiner branded products built in the US than Burris branded products.

If you go to the Burris website, select Fullfield IV for example, where's COO? Or their 2020 catalog highlighting the new China made muttherfuukers? Only reference to COO is the US Made XTRIII. No COO for their praised XTR Sig rings from Wuhan. They list FFII like its a great tradition then move right into FFIV, as if it is just more of a good thing.
I call bullchit on your statement above, Burris hides the COO of their products, plain and simple.
And so do their retailers.
It'd piss me off Royally to have bought a FFIV and see the MOC! Oh, fuuck I'd been pissed!
As others have said, I too was moving more towards Burris, however, this move to Communist China for 2020 new products is a deal breaker. Fuuck them if they continue the trend.
