Have found Ansh?tz and Benelli.
Next brand will probably be Steyr Mannlicher.
Can't think of an american made rifle or shotgun that I'd want more than any Ansh?tz, Steyr Mannlicher or Benelli.
Don't do anything that I've allready done - That'd be just plain STOOOOOOPID.
So about 94% are USA

I've got a line on a Steyr Mannlicher in 8mm myself. There are a bunch of guns I want. This one has priority though.
As for the original question without going up to look, I'd say 10% of my guns came from europe, none from asia. In the past there have been several 22 pumps and lever actions from south america, there probably will be again in the future.

My only import for sure is the Benelli SBE. Even my CVA was made here.
I can honestly say that my ratio of U.S. to foreign guns will change. I'm likely going to part with some of my Remington's as I've became less and less impressed with them over the years. My buddies Howa shoots every bit as well as my Rem. 700 BDL SS DM and with scope and all cost 1/3 of my rifle.

The American made ones include the Rugers, Remingtons, Winchesters, Marlins, H&R's, Colts, Garand, M1 Carbines, and Mossbergs.
The foriegners would include the Enfields, Femaru, SKS, Weatherby's, Rossi's, Taurus's, Excams, Schmidt-Rubin, and Norinco's.

Essentially this change over was accuracy driven and it just ended up this way...I have owned several Ruger 77's and a couple of Remington Model Sevens over the years the last two were replaced by a Tikka and a Browning. My varmint/target is a CZ-527 in .223. All are sub minute of angle shooters. I will consider a Ruger 77 in the future because of a particular chambering, but I'm going in to the purchase figuring I'll change the trigger[;)]
