Am I missing something?

Wow thats nuts!!!

i think it comes with a russian bride and a bottle of vodka. its in the fine print no?

EDIT: after actually reading the fine print. the words that stood out and actually might be the reason is 'US made.'

because dumbasses will buy them

I would think so!

[shooterdave]

its a milled ak and those cost a bit more but imho its way to much. imo its the type of rifle for people with more $$$ than brains!

[jshoebot]

For $2,000, I'd hope it came with about $1100 in cash.

I dont think its true but I heard most AK cost $50 or so to produce in 3rd world countries and we pay upwards to $1k to buy them?

sounds really plausible. just look at everyday electronics and appliances. they're only worth fractions of what it retails for.

Milled receiver and hammer forged barrel make it pricey but still doesn't warrant a 2k price tag. That's just nutz

The same reason douche bags here price & sell the way they do....... Lack of knowledge & ethics

It's ok, no need to worry about the price tag guys, they won't sell to us.
