I'm using the import stuff from Laurel Mountain Mustang on my Comet and while it's OK it isn't orig, when I redo the Cobra jet it's going to have US made arms upper & lower even if I have to rebuild the uppers...
Sometimes it's duty on offshore parts, American made is duty free. Exchange is less than 5 cents on the dollar these days, and we have to pay the sales tax, on anything shipped over the broder.
