the new P320 x5 .. absolute price gouging!?!

You could also buy a P320 FS and forget that other crap you don't need, unless your competing in open div. IPSC., and save $750. It's a great shooter as is. All that other stuff is just f'in with it.

To be honest I do not know what the procedures, policies and what firearms M.D. Charlton brings in. Maybe I have even bought a few items (because I do not know who and what) from the dealers that they distribute to, but my experience with M.D. a number of years ago was not the best..in fact of all the suppliers I was utilizing to run my small retail store M.D. was the worst. Poor customer service, a Manager who had more attitude than a wolverine caught in a trap and as this post originally started, higher prices than I could get buying the items off of other retailers..even from the states. As Dilligaf has stated, save yourself some cash and other potential aggravation and purchase items from such EXCELLENT suppliers such as IRG, Wolverine Supplies etc. Just my .02.

All my dealings with MD have been great. Great Customer service and fast responses.
 
As far as I know, the first few guns are in the country, but have not been released to dealers yet. In other words, we don't know what the price is at this point.

Fine. I guess that was kind of Fuddy. Wait does double the cost equal double the performance? Ha, still right.

When you pay double for most things in life (like computers, cars, phone, etc) it doesn't necessarily means you automatically get 2x the performance. That's pretty obvious.

Price/performance ratio on most consumer goods has always been a bell curve.

If there is going to be a huge price difference between can and us dealers. I would have to look very hard at having I run guns bring it in for me.

The sticking point with doing a 3rd party import is that the fee would negate any savings on the initial purchase price. If they brought a crate of them over though...

There's no proof of this. You'd have to downgrade the value of the original and provide proof of substantially greater results in the X5's performance by comparison.

Aside from maybe the takedown lever there doesn't appear to be any shared parts between the P320 and the X5. Do you believe you could replace every part on a P320 with an upgraded version for 700 bucks? There's an extra $150+ worth of magazines alone. Now I'm not saying the gun should cost double what a standard 320 does, but it's silly to pretend they 1 and 1 (a) to each other.
 
I will rephrase my previous point. The issue is cost versus performance improvement in comparison. There's still no evidence. I'd like to see some walk the walk, not just talk the talk.

So you believe that an enlarged magwell and controls, upgraded sights, trigger, and longer sight plain are only a marginal improvement to the function of a firearm?
