I really want to get one of these for my JG BAR-10. http://www.airsoftatlanta.com/product_p/39655.htm
Why in the world is it so expensive?

I would assume because it is very high quality, otherwise, I have no idea.

$370 Just seems a bit outrageous. Oh well, I'll probably get one with my Summer job.

This is actually a relatively small price compared to the mods people do to fit RS stocks on their VSR's.

Be warned, these stocks have this never dying passion to break near the top of the pistol grip, right under the bolt handle. I don't think there is a way to prevent this, although one of the shops started inserting steel plates behind the area that likes to crack.

That price is pretty much par for the course, really. If you have the money, just buy the parts and build yourself a M40A3.

That's true. Performance over looks I guess.

yes and no. no point in spending $300+ on looks when you can't hit a target past 200 ft. and yes i like my gun to look good but i would rather have an accurate/powerful gun than a tacticool rifle.

That's what I meant. Anyways, I think i'm going to get my dad to make one of these out of wood (He's a wiz with that sort of thing) so I can save money and still have the awesome looks.
