Well in al fairness I'd have to do some math because you guys generally like more expensive gear then us. That along with you many being worth a bit more , and and import fees. Like most guys I talk to over there , a Tikka is a considered a half decent good enough deal. Here a Tikka is more of a serious kinda rich guy brand. Same with Beretta shot guns. Also general cost of living is just pain more over here . Like my state is one of the cheapest in the country to live but my paycheck apparently wouldn't cover alot of my friends rent in the UK Quote Link to post Share on other sites
