If a Crosman Storm XT gets a Turbo Tune plus a GRT III trigger, what percentage would a "Made in China" springer become American made.  Furthermore is the stock from an American wood and/or do the stocks come from America once assembled in China.  I guess the metal has alot to do with the equation as well.

It will never, IMHO, be American made.  I knew a guy who dropped a VW bug body on a 60's Corvette chassis and motor.  We didn't call it a Corvette.

It becomes a tuned Chinese gun.lol. My B26 has Macarri, Weihrauch and British custom parts, so is this an intercontinental gun?
