    I still have mine from 2013ish. I love its utility but god I hate how heavy it is. As much as I dislike synthetic stocks on my guns, I would be tempted to put one on just make it less of a pain.

    I have to disagree. The Ruger is superior in terms of quality. Mossberg has never had a quality rifle that I've seen. 590A1's yes, rifle no. Sloppy bolts. Poor stocks. The bottom dollar in rifles for the low end mass market.

    It’s a free market unfortunately, they can ask whatever they want after all, it’s up to the people to decide what’s a product worth. In this case It looks like some people thought it was worth it, that’s your answer. Now, will I buy it myself ? No...not even when they were 1000$, not too long ago. Why ? Well a 308 with a 16in barrel doesn’t make sense to start with. It’s compact but at the same time not so light, which make this not so versatile to carry around...which was the origin intent. Go see nut fancy review on YouTube regarding this riffle. Even the action isn’t something that is worth this price. BUT, I’m really glad , and I mean it, that such products are available to those who want something as cool as this. It’s definitely awesome looking, and having held one in my hands, they’re superbe quality.

    I ordered straight from shopruger.com and they ship to me, maybe a mistake but I don't know for sure.

    The synthetic stock is a quality piece for the money… but, it will make the 18” models front heavy.

    I had a Mini 14 once in that laminate stock. Beautiful gun but so heavy, you just want to put it into a display and leave it there.
