The Tip is 'Watch What You Eat' While in the grocery store recently I noticed that the apples were from South America. Next to South American apples were a bin of apples labeled Made in USA. I decided to go with the Made in America apples since they were US grown. Always remember the Big Secret- buying more American made products helps put Americans back to work. It will guide you to food you will want to eat that is grown with US labor. If you just take a moment to look and think before you buy, it is likely you will find what you are looking for. Also, be careful because sometimes labels are not what they seem. Some companies use the letters USA to fool you into thinking they are American products. Trust only those products that literally claim their country of origin. Look for labeling like: Product of USA, Made in USA, Grown in USA, or other definitive markings. And last, when you begin the journey of purposely identifying American products keep in mind that it may take a little time but the more you look the easier it becomes. You will start to remember which brands are made in the USA and which aren't. This knowledge makes it easy and will accumulate over time. Some food items are not grown in the USA and you will learn that too. The Big Secret tells us we don't need to purchase everything from USA manufacturers just a little more than we are accustom to. If you can average $200 a month more on domestic purchases than you otherwise would it adds up fast. $2,400 a year is equivalent to 7 MILLION new American jobs. We believe that is a good thing. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Calico Beginning in October of 1982, California Instrument Company designed and built specialized instrumentation for the petroleum industry. Armed with a background in tooling and engineering, a totally new concept in firearms magazine technology was developed and in May of 1985, the first working 100 round helical feed .22LR carbine prototype was successfully tested. Eventually, an entire family of firearms was developed around this revolutionary new design. By June of 1989, the first 50 and 100 round 9mm double helix firearms were being produced. These robust weapon systems were hailed internationally as the next generation in firearms development. Enjoying worldwide success, Calico Light Weapon Systems now features a full line of calico accessories, like the world's only true speed-loader, making it easy to capture the full advantage of this unique design. Always looking to the future, Calico engineers are currently developing new weapons and munition feeding systems that take advantage of our internationally patented design configurations. At Calico, we are committed to our revolution in firepower. Helical Feed Magazine The heart of the Calico's weapon systems is the patented helical feed design. Using a staggered helix principal, the rounds are driven forward along a fluted cartridge carrier as they press against the helical wells of the magazine cover. The driving pressure is achieved by a rectangular torsion spring located inside the fluted cartridge carrier. Moving forward one by one, they are fed by a specially-designed feed port into the top-loading chamber of the Calico firearm. Calico's helical magazine feeding systems remain the most advanced method known for efficiently storing and dispensing ammunition in small arms. |
