I will add that IMHO we are in the sweet spot for custom “African style” rifles pricing. Manufacturers will not be able to hold current prices much longer. Employees wages, materials, equipment cost, building purchase or rent, energy cost, everything has gone up and will never come back to where they were. Anyone still able to stay in business in this tiny market will be forced to raise prices incrementally and often. Or all at once.
So as a result the preowned models will increase in value. 3 years from now. Anyone looking for a preowned “African rifle” will remember the glory days we are in right now.
I will add a prediction we can look up in 3 years. This same rifle will cost you at least $10K
