I'm one of those ones who in spite of the insanity of the American court system on many issues believes our system is right-on in not requiring proofing but am really curious about how the liability end of things works in nations where proofing is required.
Thanks.
But look at how the older us guns were made, they seemed to me to be a fair bit heavier and sturdier than say an English game gun. In other words, I haven't seen too many 6 lb US made game guns around as they made them thicker.
I may be wrong but from handling guns at gun shows and shops in the US, that was my feeling.
I think this may have changed a bit now though, some very nice US guns around.
