the recent IUR UPPER offering (the lower is a joke)is of decent price/quality ratio, I bought one and I like it.
the SA15/20 their initial pricing is nothing but price gouging the patriots.
I judge products on it's price/value/quality ratio, nothing else, whether it's made in Canada, US, China, or Vietnam, does not matter to me.
I own Norinco, KAC, LMT, now colt IUR(upper). every piece i own is good value for the money, whether it's the $600 norc or the $3k lmt mws.
I own Norinco not because it's cheap, it's good bang for the buck.
