I wanted to get 50 CNC'd handguards similar to the NCstar ones, mlok on sides and picatinny on the top.

875 dollars a piece from a large, local company. That's called a "fuck off" quote, they don't even wanna do the work.

40 dollars from China.

Most likely the exact same quality and materials. I wouldn't doubt it if the Chinese ones were actually better.

These chassis are machined locally by a small manufacturer in Canada, which is why it can be made in the first place. From a larger manufacturer in Canada this would literally be about 5k to make, it's fucking absurd.

When you take all of this into consideration 700 is not that crazy.
