Army surplus enfields did them for 50 years. Now they need $4800 bolt action rifles for bear defense and hunting. Not one of those is ever going to be fired at a Russian. Army specifies anything, add millions to the price. I swear, if they decided to just give them bear spray the price would be $1200 per can.

well if the last rifle lasted them 50 years, assuming this one can do the same thats only 96$ year for the rifle as a system. Not horrible in my books.
