Well Mr. Expert, unlike you, I called the Gun Library and found the gun you so proudly referenced was sold in SEPTEMBER OF 2011.
That's just a while ago. So yet once again, your stupidity or outright lies have caught up with you.
Even IF it were still for sale at that price, when you add in all that was done to the rifle, $1000 is a bargain.
