    We don't want to build crap, there is plenty of that already. Strangely the crew here likes to eat and live indoors on their own rather than at homeless shelters, and our suppliers demand payment for materials and parts. This does not even touch on the daily costs of the building, insurance or machine costs.

    Also given the minuscule market that Canada is when it comes to firearms there is no economies of scale to be had. IF we could tap into even the US market the price could be less simply based on the numbers being sold, but in order to increase the numbers we would have to spend a few million dollars more for more machines. This last week alone I spent nearly 1/4 million dollars on 1 new CNC milling machine and tooling.
    i wish i could convince my ceo for you guys to use our plant for 1 day a week, we already have controlled goods certificates. we even have an ultrasonic inspection unit and auto layups if you want to do carbon fiber

    Weird question.. Not that I don't like our country, but can you not put the word "Canada" on it? It doesnt really add to its value. I'm fine with your company name on it, (But definately prefer just ATRS if possible).

    Just suggestions for the coolness factor. Nobody needs reminding if which country we're in :P


    By the way, are firing pins, extractor interchangable?

    That is #### for gun owners, 3 grand or even 3500 is a steal for what you get. Looks amazing thumbs up!

    Steep based on what? You're getting in-house receivers made in Canada, match barrel/trigger in a small batch platform. The reality is new designs cost money for the manufacturer, a lot of money. I have no intention of purchasing one, however I can respect the efforts being made. $500 more than an XCR, compare the two and let me know which is a nicer rifle. I've owned both an XCR and a MH, I'm a huge fan of the XCR however fit and finish are not even in the same ballpark.
