Is Blaser Trying To Price Themselves Out Of The American Market???

My barrel says MA on the side. Definitely a magnum.

They don’t call them small anymore. It’s now slim fit.

A friend told me….

Gunshots not normally heard at night? Spend any one night in north Philly then get back to us.

Gang bangers aren’t yote hunting or using suppressors.

My guess our north Philly people on here are approaching zero. Just a guess.

LOL! I have a gunroom full of rifles and with the exception of my double rifle, I hunt exclusively with my R8s now.. Call me a Blaser fanboy if you wish, but I absolutely love them! I have recently built up my long range hunting R8: 300 WM, GRS Stock and a Swarm DS scope.. This is my Tajikistan rifle for this coming December.. View attachment 587492

Are you going to tighten the screw on the rear ring?

The devolvement of these threads into totally irrelevant subjects, and the ensuing arguments that follow are quite comical. I'm off to start a dick measuring thread now. What section should that go in? Lol!

Don't worry, the ones who think we give a hoot about their opinions will be a long shortly.

Well I can assure you, mine is bigger than yours. My R8 I mean....LOL!

Swelling from slamming it in doors does not count.

Toby, that ads another dimension to “length of pull”

He pulls until it comes unstuck.

And the size will be written on the side to avoid confusion

Or false advertisement!

MA for "Massively Approximated."

MA for "Massively Approximated."

More like "minor abilities" LOL!

Compare it to the size of a suppressor..........on a Blaser? LOL

Of course.. The picture was taken before the DS was aligned and tightened down..

It was just one of those things where see something say something made actual sense. I'm glad to know it isn't something you are unaware of.

My Montana elk hunting guides have gone to "Best of the West" 300 PRC with suppressors. I will be hunting with them this Fall. I asked them about fitting the rifle and can into a scabbard on a horse and they said it wasn't an issue.

Randy Newberg has a good video on the subject

Bet that use to be a handy little rifle. Though clearly the future.

Interesting. After watching that video, a "Lets talk suppressors" video popped up. That guy has some eleven suppressors on his bench including two on ARs. $11K worth of suppressors or thereabouts? Wow!

I know this is the rainbow age of woke, but this thread is becoming uncomfortably gay.

I'm from Upstate NY and became fluent sarcasm at the tender age of two. Clearly you have certification as well.

 

[Daisy]

@BeeMaa. Don’t be scared to dip in the water of convo. Feels good.

 

[K E Johnson]

I don’t know, personally I feel this “convo” has had way more than it’s fair share of “dips”.

A REAL or SERIOUS hunter and gamekeeper wearing a flat cap and breeks who guides in Scottish Highlands who regularly has rifles with silencers in his photos.

That did escalate mighty quickly didn't it? At least we're off of suppressors now. Lol!

It is a finely developed and not a completely unappreciated art form. Being born just outside New Orleans it is a genetic attribute.

Here is my amateur economic opinion and speculation:
The cost to produce something often has little to do with the price. Supply and demand drives prices. Right now Blasers are in high demand compared to their production/supply numbers. I'll consider myself lucky if I see my D99 barrel two years from when I ordered it. I paid full retail, but would have paid even more to not wait 2+ years. This will no doubt be an unpopular opinion, but the price needs to go up. This is the same phenomenon that makes government price controls fail. Demand exceeds supply and their are shortages, long waits, and empty shelves.

tapping into my economic education you have a “price seeker” meaning the gun can demand whatever the market will bare…this gun is seen as highly differentiated with few equals versus a “price taker” meaning the gun has to be priced to be competitive given the gun is seen as having many like brands matching it and is not differentiated from others. Notice costs don’t play into this

I don’t think I can bore anyone more than my above response lol!!!!!
