Is the type 81 lmg trash ?

The semi auto Battle rifle market changed significantly with the banning of Swiss arms, m14s, ar10s and vz’s. Type 81s are the best 30 cal semi auto available right now. The market is dictating that the supply isn’t enough so prices are above retail.
this is weird. why would this many all of a sudden needs cash? wouldnt they know being on a tight budget not to spend it on a hobby?
the answer is capitalism at its finest. they do it for condos and Teslas so why not guns?

Probably people trying to make a quick buck before Trudeau and Shi tty Bill get wise and add these to the list. I feel that 1499 plus tax was over prices so I literally laugh out loud when I see them for 2500+ on the EE
The range reports sound good. . .It was definitely an impulse buy for all who purchased. No advance warning sold out in 12 hours. Some regret after receiving or want quick profits. My guess is if next shipment is it for lmg versions demand for these will always be there. Unless there banned.
Purely because orders are being fulfilled and more people who bought extras for resell now have goods in hand.
You actually gotta hand it to those who sold "futures" against these and were able to sell with uplift before taking actual delivery.
Nothing to do with quality nor desperation. Just a quick way to make a buck, nothing wrong with that.

I'm sure most of it is just buy and sell. Supply and deman rules all.
The range videos I've seen show them in a pretty good light, so I would not call them trash at all.

Soooo... you would sell me an MP7 semi-auto for only $1200 if you had a few dozen sitting around the house knowing full well you could fetch $3-5k each for them? I mean, if 1200 was the price HK was selling them for you should sell them for that price too, right?
Come on, give yer head a shake. People will pay what people will pay. TI could have easily sold all these rifles exclusively to dealers and they would set the market price. Do you honestly think the price would stay low?
