Why is it so hard to believe the gun is made in the USA?
I have hope, but Springfield wore out too many "Made in Croatia" and "Made in Brazil" stamps for my 100% confidence.
My feelings too. Use a historic American name to sell imported goods. If they're making the SA-35 here I might consider it.
Never really liked that either. Even though I like my Range Officer.
My understanding of past 1911 guns from Springfield,
All were forged in Brazil.
Many(most?) were machined into guns in Brazil.
The NM guns were mostly machined in Brazil.
Then shipped here to have the slide rails cut.
At that point, they became a gun. And could be considered made in USA.
No proof, but what's commonly accepted.
