Hmmm... I tend to agree with you, Red6. I've been out of that business for a while, and I can't see a reason to seek it anymore. Dealing with Mil-Specs is a nightmare in our Country. Better to buy off-the-shelf from someone else. It's cheaper.
Of course, our middle-manufacturing-base is going to hell-in-a-handbasket. I don't have an answer. I'm being driven out of business by political appointees who have their own adgenda against white people. I got fined $600.00 for having a can of 'Raid' in my maintenance department, because there wasn't a warning-label near it, identifying it as a dangerous chemical!
Of course, we labelled everything in the Plant. It cost $400.00 to print the labels. Stupid! .................FRegards
You'd think that the warning that manufacturers put on the cans themselves would be good enough.

I thought fedgov gave those away as "freebies":
My biggest gripe with ANY administration, Democrat or Republican is that the standards in the US are not applied to products imported. So while our domestic industry has to conform to OSHA, EPA child labor rules and so fourth it is completely OK according to the government to import products from China, Indonesia or Pakistan where these rules in part don't exist.
I see this as a BIG issue that is delicately avoided by EVERYONE! And even when or if they tear their mouth open they quickly forget the issue once in office (Clinton and Bush). Though very conservative, I must admitt that our government is more lead by large corporations and their bottom line than from principal, reguardless of administration.
