Sorry...it was too easy....Lol
Better than Beta
From what I read about the trials for this rifle they were making a mix of the Famas and Tavor. Or thats how the trials ended up. Either way we have to help out the balkan economies of the former YU. I am hoping the AK prohibition was out so we could get the Serbian M21.
I commend you guys at Tactical Imports for taking the initiative and contacting so many foreign and interesting manufacturers, I am committed to this and your FAMAE SG 543 if that ever goes ahead. But you will need to get the price closer to $2500.
$3k is Swiss Arms grounds, which are the benchmarks for manufacturing standards and quality. A plastic rifle needs to be less. There is no way it can cost as much, and once it does, it tells us that we consumers are only covering someone's very high profit margin.

Interesting - like anything else, price is what'll determine what I buy. I liked the norc T97 pricing, but don't like norcs, so that was out.... sadly everything else costs 2-3k and +++++++!
Edit - from online it sounds like government big order pricing is 1450 Euros, so I'm not sure just how cheap it'll be possible to go with these guns.

Price
But that's if you're a military contractor in Europe and buying a predetermined number of their select-fire units, doesn't include getting it to Canada, import fees and paperwork. Plus, the ones coming to Canada (semi-auto) aren't even made yet, meaning they will be specially made for the Canadian market, with semi-auto receivers, which means re-tooling from the select-fire machinery setup they are currently manufacturing. That unit price is irrelevant to us here in Canada. It's the age-old argument of "I can get it cheaper if I import it myself"-never works out that way. I commend you Tactical Imports for your efforts bringing cool stuff into Canada. Plus, if you think the price is too high, don't buy it. If all us think the price is too high, they'll have to drop the price or they won't sell, and if Tactical Imports can't sell them at a price the buyers want and still make a buck (they are a business after all), then they probably won't bring them in. I say bring em on. I'll start saving now.
