John aka “Crosmanengineer” posted maybe about a year ago (I think on Gateway) that the Marauder was still made predominantly with USA sourced parts. Don’t know if that is still the case since I see the 2021 models are wearing walnut from Turkey. Maybe he can chime in. @CrosmanEngineer

I love Crosman brand so I hope so. I did just buy their Turkish Kral made Cayden. It looks like Crosman made the Kral better overall so I am happy with the product. The Marauder SAM is definitely on my radar but it would definitely help if it is more American than not

Crosman has been outsourcing for years. The last (or second to last?) piston gun I purchased was a Crosman branded Mendoza (Mexico) probably 15 years ago.

Outside of the Craftsman line (Krals), I believe all of their pcps are assembled in NY. Of those, parts are made by Crosman, USA suppliers, and imported.

...And bad to the bone 
That isn’t a rational or even remotely applicable statement to any situation in America. So “they” don’t need to “battle” anything.

I buy American whenever possible. Many times all we have to do is check the packaging. I looked at some batteries a few days ago at Harbor Freight and they were made in China. For 3 to 4 cents more a battery I can buy Duracell made in the US. One thing I feel is misleading is the percentage of US supplied parts and labor on vehicles. The manufacturers give a number for that particular line of vehicles such as a pickup truck. In the case of Chevy Silverados you can have one made in Mexico and one made in America with the same %. By doing the calculations this way the one made in the US is pulled down by the Mexican built and the Mexican built is inflated by the US built. When I shop for vehicles I always look at the VIN. If the first number in the VIN is1,4 or 5 they are US built. 2 is Canadian and 3 is Mexican built.
