If you strip off some of the great add-ons of a Kidd barreled upper, you will get the price down quite a bit. Certifiable's recommendation of a lighter barrel knocks some $$'s off the price, as would foregoing one of their high end triggers.
I must say, though. The 2-stage Kidd trigger I have on my gun is probably/possibly the best trigger I've got on any gun I own. Not kidding.
