    I don't know if $1000 is really reasonable. I'd be more in the $1200-1500 range to be honest.

    Think about our current options for .308 non-restricted:: XCR-M, RFB, etc

    This would be a great alternative even at $1500

    Thanks for stepping up on this one cadgo! Even at a cost of 20% more per rifle I'd put a down payment on one of these rifles. Hopefully they'd be chrome-lined with a scope union but I'd tap the ole visa for one regardless... Now I just have to make sure I get home to Canada in time.

    To me csa rifles in NR configuration are a great buy. There aren't many battle capable NR rifles. No not everyone wants/needs a combat capable rifle. I for one see the benefit in owning NR combat capable rifles. If things get BAD we might actually need them. Since they're NR we can hunt and carry them in the woods.

    $900 range for csa vz58 in 7.62x39 and 5.56x45 and $1200-$1500 for a vz58 in 7.62x51 seem like a great deal to me. Compare these prices to even an entry level ( non Chinese ) AR and the value becomes apparent. NR and a great price point.

    I'd almost rather have one in 5.45x39 than 7.62x51.

    Will it use proprietary mags and what profile will the barrel have?

    Hell, I'd like to see both those calibres on the market, then at least I'd have the option to pick which one I wanted (I'd probably eventually end with one in each calibre anyways :D).
    When they came for my Full auto machine gun, no one did a thing, as it didn't affect them. When they came for my Converted auto, they still said nothing. When they came for my Handguns and Semi-autos they were still too scared to say anything. When they came for my single shot bolt-action .22 rifle, there was no one left to help me.
    Is this what we want to see in our future?

    For under $1500 (preferably less) I'd buy one! Especially if it took AR-10/SR25 type mags! It would be an excellent cheaper (alot cheaper) alternative to other NR .308 caliber rifles on the market. Would need some sort of scope mounting incorporated, I'd be fine with the standard side rail.
