For the record, I'm also happy that the Tenda thread had a very common theme. I think they were sent in as the test subject.

They had the right price the first time, they would have moved volume. Even if the new price came in A BIT more, it may have still worked....

Unfortunately , now with a middle man (NS) , it cant be close to the first time so I figured that maybe it could be sold to retailers at $1449 and then have them flog it at $1600. That's is how I arrived at the spring sale price.
Let’s just say that Mikey Mouse company failed miserably in Canada.
I was on original preorder with Wanstalls too and won’t be buying this no name company rifle for $2K or supporting NS.
Would $1600 sooth your ruffle feathers? I might buy it at that price.

North Sylva, just posted a link to a review and in the article they say barrels are easy to swap out at home and extra barrels cost $250US.
Spring sale for sure.
They can call it whatever they want, but IRG can get the US version for around $1000 US each, slap on a cheap 18.5" criterion barrel that wholesales for what? $75 for a decent blank? Criterion already pumps these out for AK builders for dirty cheap. Another $75 in bulk smithing fees, and they can get a rifle to us for the original US MSRP of around $1250 if they so choose.
If IRG comes through, NS's competition will sell rifles for $1000 less then they are offering. That would rock in so many ways it would not even be funny.
The ONLY way I would ever buy an M&M product after this mess, is if doing so destroyed their unethical business model.

This is the only way I can see myself buying one now aswell and it is a great idea if it works out like this
Locking the review thread shows NS is aware of the ####-storm but doesn't care enough to get involved or speak about it.
The review reminds me of those video game reviewers/critics (whatever) that can't even play the game itself.
It takes more than calling something precision to make it an actual precision platform. 7.62x39 doesn't scream precision round to me either.
And I find it funny as hell they allude to XCR, SCAR etc.. as being direct competitors and they are cheaper. What a joke, I think that article was a paid ad.
