No hands in the cookie jar. Nameless people posted prices that never came from M&M. Are you aware that you are buying a nitrated stainless steel rifle made entirely from scratch in the US? Barrel is nitrated 4150 steel, hell even the screws are nitrated. North Sylva is not gouging either, sorry conspiracy theorists. You type 81 stamped rifle that was mass produced with sheet metal and some of the cheapest labour in the world comes in at $1000. Do the math. I'm privy to the margins and I can tell you no one is getting rich on these overnight.
Not trying to bash you, but you do know a large percentage of the m10x is also stamped sheet steel, right?
