Few days ago I picked up this pelican 1770 for $150 (normally $1000-1500) and today I went and picked up this 1750 off the same lady for $100!

In total I paid $250 for nearly $2000 worth of cases (not saying they’re worth that - just going off what sites are selling them for)

Manufacturers in the gun industry have the upper hand and it kinda angers me.

From small M-lok aluminum pieces that can cost upwards of $100

Or bipods that hit $1000+

Or scope rings that go up to $600

Or Muzzle Brakes that go up to $800

I was literally about to order mdt rings and then thought fuck that.

How are rings worth more than the inclosed forend for my xrs chassis? Or the same price as a grnd pod.

It's a bit ridiculous.

Glad I bought my MDT elite rings before they went up another like $100-$150 lol

All their stuff. I'm happy I bought my chassis from rdsc before they followed the price raise from MDT.

Chassis went up like $190 overnight back around January.

I want to get a ckye pod eventually but don't want to pay that ridiculous $800 but pretty soon it will probably be $1000 for the cheapest one.

I get materials have gone up but holy shit man. I like their products but it's getting a bit ridiculous with the prices

I have the grnd-pod cuz I’m not spending that much on one when I barely even get time to take my stuff out to the range let alone hunting lol

I have the grnd pod right now but considering upgrading. But I agree it's ridiculously priced
