Be careful with the labels. As Taffi said... the ones made in the US will say "made in USA."
However, I have seen Chinese pens which say "CROSS USA" on them. Often the "USA" is fitted between dashes. It looks like this:
CROSS
-USA-
These are NOT made in the US. Once again Cross uses a loophole. In this case they saying Cross is "USA", not the pen.
They stopped doing this a few years ago, but it was popular during the switchover.
Also, the Chinese pens don't say Made in China on them. On the box will be a 'made in China' tag which is easily removable.
