    There is NO "Made in Vietnam" or "Made in Australia" stamp. On the left side of the action, this is stamped - "Australian International Arms - Brisbane, Australia"

    As I said, failure of these rifles entering the US had nothing to do with Vietnam as far as the US gov't was concerned. Tristar referred to expired permits. The businesses were only concerned with...

    Ron, did you read my article? Stamps didn't enter into it, at least, according to Tristar. Expired permits was given as the official reason. Tristar had no reason to lie about that.

    I don't think anyone should be embarrassed to call a spade a spade. It's a misleading description. They have some very, shall we say, unusual business practices. This is but another example.
