Tarquin is suggesting one man can turn out a Legend every two days of man hrs at massive profit.
He's made so much of a goose of himself and sadly doesn't know when to stop.
Contradictions, denials , unsubstantiated claims are his specialty in trying to make his case.

Your wonky stories keep changing .. Orig. you stated you had many smiths who can build a true Legend grade M70 at $3500 Hilarious that when Tarq. doubles down on his BS he can't even keep the story straight.

Your changing story posts are there for everybody to see and you still deny it ? So is it $3500 or $5000...?

You can't comprehend simple English either! That explains how easy it was for D'Arcy to empty your savings account! LIfe must be very hard for you.

I've dealt with D'Arcy, bought a Legend stock from him He was generous with his time, very nice and helpful, and I wasn't spending big bucks. I got the feeling he was as nice to me as he would be to a big client plopping down $15K. He does spend a lot of time building, tweaking and load developing his top end rifles.
There are people who have no problems spending that kinda money, aren't Loony types, want a top end, very accurate rifle without all the work needed to make that happen.
We Loonies love to do all that stuff ourselves. Everyone isn't like us (probably a good thing).
I know a guy who loves Kenny Jarrett rifles, doesn't mind paying the price, has several. He's self made in the fast food business, amassed over $100 mil during his 30 yr career, recently cashed out. He'd rather pay Kenny $10K or whatever, than spend time reloading and working up loads. Evidently his time is worth more than ours and was put to more productive use.
Kenny loads his ammo, this dude makes money. Good trade off... Bud is happy, I'm sure Kenny is happy.
It's not appropriate for us to get our drawers in a wad over someone building high end rifles and charging accordingly.
If there wasn't a market, there wouldn't be these suppliers.

Folks who own Legends are typically far from poor and still have plenty left over ..yet Tarq. came here kicking the tires of a 30+ year old Rem build. How Tarq.gets so engaged and judgemental about how other people spend their money is bonkers. I know a guy who loves Kenny Jarrett rifles, doesn't mind paying the price, has several.

He made his $100m but Tarquin types would like to advise them on how to spend it.

And the thing about the Jarrett is that it is a proprietary three-lug custom action and it's still $7000 less than a Legend! You just proved my point dumbass! I can buy a beautiful, custom, 3-lug action with a 60 degree bolt throw from Kenny for half the price of a reworked Echols Winny! WTF?

I don't have your poor judgemental attitude or you propensity to live in denial.
Why are you so concerned about other people's consumer spending and lifestyles ?

I really could care less, but the entertainment value of watching someone try to defend spending 2-3 times what is necessary for a hunting rifle is priceless. Worth every penny. It's not often you see someone double-down on stupid in print!
