Why put a $500 chassis on a $200 rifle?

are these things on pre order or are in the stores now? I would like to see a picture of the black one please.
I take your point, but it's a semiauto NR carbine, shooting a 30 cal intermediate cartridge, in a nice aluminum chassis with decent ergos that takes 10 round detachable mags & is probably about as reliable as a gun can get. And it'll probably go for $799 at retail. And the ammo is relatively cheap.Originally Posted by Daver_II
The takedown looks like a bit of a pain in the ass, but quite frankly, as long as I'm not shooting corrosive, I've never felt that my $169 Soviet SKS really needed to be cleaned. 1000's of rounds and it's never failed. I can't say that about any other gun I've ever owned.
And as to the $...I don't know about you guys, but my spending habits vis-a-vis guns has never been driven by sound economic principles. It's all extra-curricular spending.
Can you tell that I'm trying to talk myself into buying one...?

I wonder how much flack Henry Ford got at first when he came up with his idea.
It looks pretty awesome, I'll give it that.
I got Guns in my Head and they won't GO
Seems like a lot of gun for $850. The take down seems like a pain and I'm not a huge fan of the colour but it's a great idea. Canada's gun laws force us to find workarounds to enjoy our sport. If ar's weren't restricted we would probably just buy those instead. As it is this looks like a pretty good option at a fraction of the cost of anything similar
Thank you to the manufacturers that come up with new cool stuff for us to enjoy

And I do see this gun as superior to my gun in a tapco stock, other than the ease of takedown.

I think I will stick with my SKS-D. If its 800 dollars, I would rather spend the extra 200 to get a type-81.
Nothing yet. My black pre-order was suppose to be in but now I'm told early in the new year.
i didn't realize those two rifles (SKS-D & the Type 81) shot ten round magazines.......
