M+M CEO Considered Pulling M10X Rifle From Canada After Brouhaha - CDN Gun Blog

See, this is where you and the other fanboy nuthuggers go off the rails.
VERY VERY FEW would have accepted the $2000 retail price here, when they sell for $1000 in the US.
Wanstalls price made sense because $1450 is basically US dealer pricing, + conversion, and a decent 25-30% markup for them. Prophet/IRG etc could bring them in cheaper then that still if someone wanted to go that route.
$2000 here makes NO SENSE at all for a $1000USD rifle.

Very few would have accepted $2k?

Do I need to quote the MANY CGNers who said they would buy this at $2k and were excited in February? Just look in the closed Can Am thread
 
I could be miss-reading this, but you're saying that despite floundering US sales, they decided to make their non-selling, already expensive platform even more expensive, simply because it was pre-planned?

I guess that could be true, but would strike me as a terrible business plan.

It was always going to have two versions in usa.
 
Here are a couple screen shots from another review forum.... thought they were valid points.

So you believe they would just scrap all the parts for the long barreled version rather than assembling rifles for sale?

I'll be honest, I'm not sure that you're following my point, and I'm not following you... I'm not even certain what we're debating anymore. :p

Using spare parts makes total sense. The guns already existing makes total sense. The price jump does not.
 
Why people continue this crying is beyond me !!!! Really if it’s to much leave it . If mike has upset your delicate ethical out look on our community move on ! Your only make yourselves look like bitter old gunnies or lady’s.
