Just bought a Sig Sauer 22 LR Model 522 for plinking out in the backyard. Did some research on them and read some reviews, couldn't really find anything bad said about them. What I did read was they are very accurate. MSRP is just over $500, got this brand new for $375. Will let you know how it shoots later.

They are over 700 quid here screwed over yet again :roll:

And you don't even get iron sights for that price either! :evil:

700 quid equals around 1100 dollars, even with import duty and stuff how the hell do they reach that figure. The MRSP is only $500 and most places here sell it for between $300 - $ 400. So yeah someone somewhere is making a huge chunk of change of you guys.

Thats easy to work out we are an easy target (excuse the pun), and we have no consumer power due to being a minority, to which nobody would be willing to back up for fear of being asociated with mass murdering phsycos :evil: :evil:

anyway back to pics eh

What about market forces?...or is it all down to cartels again.

Oligopoly!

I think someone with an RFD licence on here should get some in.

One dealer at a recent Bisley show that had them was asking £825.00 (his words "only ones in the country so be quick") now that's a mark up!!!!
