Can see it being a lot more then the price the article shows.

Hmmm this reminds me of "The Annihilator 2000" Gun from Beverly Hills Cop III

Domestically produced rifles are relatively cheap in Russia, for example a brand new in the box Izhmash Tigr chambered in 7.62x54r is around £850-950........over here they are* around £2000!.

*or were, brand new ones are unlikely to see our shores anytime soon due to the sanctions

It was unveiled by the Kalashnikov group, which produces the AK-47 assault rifle

Have you ever seen an article write:
"The Mitsubishi 3000GT, from the same company that made the planes that bombed Pearl Harbour..."

Typical daily mail.

Promo videos for this started appearing a few months ago. It's as laughable now as it was then.

I think it goes against their moto of keeping it simple.

Ok. So it's probably my affinity for sci-fi, but I REEEAAAALLLLYYY like the aesthetics of that.

But I can help but feel the ergonomics of it are not the most user friendly(the unnecessary weight of the hard drive) and the loading doesn't look the smoothest (maybe that was just the guy not being overly familiar with it)

Regardless, I like it.
