It's too much of a hassle to change, but if I did, I'd use Remmington, Colt, Springfield, Winchester, Sharps, Henry, and Marlin before using any of the foreign makes...

The servers here are named after composers, so when I write example code, I use the names "Lizst" and "Brahms", but not necessarily in that order. You probably need to be English, to get that one.
