I was issued a 110, carried it in Iraq for 12 months. KAC makes a decent product, but it’s not the end all. There are plenty of videos online of SiCo cans taking 15+ mags on full auto.
I just bought a SR15 for $1,950. I think that gun is very fairly priced. I have a Colt built up to similar specs. Baseline Skinny Barrel Colt, add sopmod stock, G SSA trigger, Vltor A5 buffer, RIS II FSP rail and I'm very much in KAC territory $$$. I don't feel ripped off and I know Im not an idiot.

Some people are happy with a Glock, some want an HK. I like HK's and feel they are worth it. Free market economy performing exactly how it should.
