KAC SR-15 v.s. SR-25 price..?

[Hihi962]

Anyone know why there is such a large price discrepancy between the sr-15 and sr-25, being nearly double the price, I don't get it?
Material and machining is basically the same, is it not?
I would like a quality .308, but geez!

Because governments around the world will pay that much for them. They were for up until a few years ago the only reliable in combat conditions and accurate 7.62 gas gun.

Not that it's a good reason, but a 308 AR is a lot beefier than a 5.56 rifle (so there is actually more material in it).

Also, I have a sig 716 for sale for a very reasonable price if you are looking for a nice 308 gas gun (shameless plug).
