Maybe I'm old because the words of Gunny still ring in my ears.

" Everything we got including our rifles are made by the lowest bidder."
I always believed that until this Halliburton thing came along. I think the Government slowly,under the radar, changed some philosophies. One is that the tried and true people who have performed for them in time of need such as this war we've taken to the terrorists. You're right about some of the low bidders though. I remember seeing an M1 carbine that was built by Ford Motor Co.
