Is it going to be a $2000-$2500 rifle that greedy bastards will bilk for $4000? That's a pretty steep profit margin, right up there with HK 416 uppers and the like. The market will set what people will pay, and no doubt with only 100 teased at first there are those who will shell out $4K. However, in the long run (if that is even planned for) the sales at $4K will taper off as more hit the market.
LOL. Except for the Great Obama Gun Sale, I have never sold ANYTHING with a $1,500 markup. If it's something in the dealer pipeline (in stock, available) the markups will be 10% at best no matter what it is. Even on things like Barrett M82A1s where the difference between dealer and MSRP was supposed to be about $1,000 I never once saw it happen and was lucky to get half of that which was about 10% above dealer.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.
