lunker 274 Posted September 29, 2014 Nice workaround. I hope the prices don't skyrocket now that it's privately owned. http://www.guns.com/2014/09/28/russia-sells-gun-factory-to-businessman-bypasses-sanctions/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaiser7 33 Posted September 29, 2014 I'm not sure if prices will skyrocket. It's possible, but I think they're going to remain consistent. Odds are they'll try and cut costs by either doing some things cheaper, or (hopefully), just modernizing production. It is good to see they have a way around the ban, I bet some people who bought panic-saigas are kinda feeling salty. I know that this came out of left field for me.

Kaiser7 33 Posted September 29, 2014 Just wondering, I only knew that saigas and weapons from kalishnakov concern were banned. What was the specific wording that allows this acquisition to circumvent the ban? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PD2K 115 Posted September 29, 2014 Nice! I'm hoping the prices will go down now that supply will increase. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tuktuk 16 Posted September 30, 2014 Great !!! I hope they will actually invest into the business. They need better machines, better QC, better steel for the barrels, better rifling on the barrel and on and on .... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaiser7 33 Posted October 30, 2014 Sorry to necropost, but I've been wondering if there's any update on this. I haven't heard anything about imports resuming (or even plans for that). Just wondering if anyone knows the status of Saiga imports. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
