Friend of mine that is fairly well acquainted with the firearms market told me that the line of firearms, scopes and related items were manufactured by the different companies to lower standards so they could sell to Walmart cheaper.
THIS IS NOT AN ACCUSATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I do not want to get sued over this.
I am just wondering if anyone has heard this to be accurate, or if anyone has had unusual problems with a rifle or scope that has come from a Walmart.
The individual that told me this has had several significant problems with 2 firearms and 3 scopes that were purchased from 2 different stores. This may be his over-active imagination, or it might be true. I really do not know.
I do know that several manufacturers had to change specifications on products (lowered certain standards) in order to sell to Walmart at the cost that Walmart was willing to purchase them. That made the news a couple of years ago in Huntsville.
Anyone have any input? Know anything concrete?
Thanks
