You have to admit though, it is somewhat comforting to know that if one, such as myself, were to buy out a company like...say...Leupold. Come in, fire everyone in the US production line, and totally outsource the parts and assembly to Mexico, China, (take your pick of on-the-cheap country) etc., you'd still have the support of those such as Walt. Because after all, it's about that profit.
