    I really want to be a Sako slut but my pockets just are not that deep.

    When Brads and a few others get some and sell them on to get the next fad I hopefully will get one

    Sorry Cam I won't be selling the two finnlights I have for one of those that price is over the top.
    Also I don't do fads, I still have a blaser and some sakos, people just follow

    Why are you all surprised about the price? That's exactly how lightweight works, The last few grams cost the most!
