    This will always be $470 gun. I get that Wolverine must account for the exchange difference but Norinco is nuts for raising their prices.

    Just my opinion, everyone is free to do as they please but The only way I can really tell Norc that this price is too high is by not buying one.
    Canadian dollar closed at US78.55 cents today.

    $470 divided by .7855 = $598.35

    Norinco's price doesn't seem to have gone up very much.

    How are the barrels indexed on this new batch?
    Order in council, for when politicians want to order people instead of being ordered by the people.

    Should police follow the law or should law follow the police?

    My Canadian Tire Sporting goods dept to me yesterday that all new fire arms orders for their store will have a 30 % increase over the present stock ( rifles and ammo ) on hand .

    The low dollar and us shipping charges also in us dollars account for the increase in future inventory they will receive .

    Sad but true .

    The days of buying a used M305 on the EE for $ 300.00 to $375.00 are long gone .

    I thought China was not allowed to export to the US. Does the US dollar really affect it?
