Price increases from Europe/Northern Italy, is a reality, I import steel from Northern Italy and they have seen their electric cost grow by 60% since the Ukrainian war started. Businesses can only absorb so much.
Hey Maillemaker. Do you know where i might obtain a Enfield 2 band stock. prefer a P-65 stock. thanks hope to meet you at the fort sometime.More than you might think. Lots of N-SSA shooters shoot original guns. You just can't match the quality of the originals, especially the locks.
I bought a very nice Smith Carbine last year for $2200.
I am not familiar with a P-65 Enfield. Perhaps you meant P-56? I would ask around on the N-SSA forum, if you can get in (they only allow members now, unfortunately). You might also check with Dunlop Stocks.Hey Maillemaker. Do you know where i might obtain a Enfield 2 band stock. prefer a P-65 stock. thanks hope to meet you at the fort sometime.
Seems a little odd since the Euro has lost 20% in value against the dollar since summer of last year. That's a big plus for anyone selling imported products from Europe. I used to sell Italian CNC machinery in North America and would have had a big smile on my face with that level of reduction in the exchange rate. They must be facing some other financial issues to still need a price increase on top of the 20% bump from the rate reduction.Was talking to the folks from Dixie Gun Works at the NMLRA range. I was looking at their Brown Bess kits. I was informed in Oct. the price would go up. Pedersoli announced there is going to be a price increase for United States orders. so buy what you can now.
Dude, that was an excellent deal!!Wow. I bought a Bess carbine in almost new condition about a week ago for $800.00. Starting to think that was a pretty good deal.
Pedersoli is bringing out a Baker rifle ?But everything's bigger down under right?
But yea except for the upcoming Pedersoli Baker I am pretty much done buying - I got plenty to keep me busy.
And I’ll wait to see the price increase before I get too excited. And while I hate padding Dixie and Pedersoli’s bank account (I’ve yet to see businesses lose money as long as people keep buying) really, what’s another $100 on a gun your already spending $1500-3000 on? Either you want it or you don’t at those prices.
That is what they told me direct in a email last May/June. Was originally set for 2022 (which is why I contacted them to check the status) but was advised the project was moved to 2023. They even bought an original Baker for the design process. Fingers crossed!Pedersoli is bringing out a Baker rifle ?
A real Rifle not smoothbore "reasonable facsimile" ?
Yup! And getting a fresh filling for your Tooth was 40 Bucks! LOLPrices going up is called inflation.I remember powder $2.00/lb. caps $19.00/1000, I started shooting my muzzle loading shotgun for 2 and 1/2 cents a shot, when 12 gauge shells were 10 cents each. And O Henry candy bars were a nickle!

Agreed on the rifling part though I’m sure it will be. I forgot to ask Pedersoli this (just assuming I guess) but they are certainly no strangers to rifled products. The whole point for me is that it is rifled. Need a “sniper” to join my smoothbores.We have a 95th Rifles group here in Australia, they'll be placing orders for the Pedersoli Baker if its rifled.
Dunlap is a no go so far called a few times they said no wood is available. I heard he is having trouble finding help to run the Copier or it is broke. who really knows.I am not familiar with a P-65 Enfield. Perhaps you meant P-56?

Ouch!!, Mate!Here in Australia you can double that to AUS $4,000 PLUS , everything has to be imported then the Dealers hike their premium.
I read somewhere that it used to cost about 3 grand to ship a container, but now was like three times that or something. The cost of running the ship, diesel, etc., wages, all add up majorly.It is really nice to talk to the folks at Dixie. When I was in their store last, I asked about availability. I was told that they believe it is a combination of supply/ demand and a lack of materials due to supply chain issues. They order whatever they can, but they expect that some things are going to be out of stock for a good while. Didn’t think to ask them about pricing, but I think it’s accurate to expect everything will continue increasing, especially based on the cost of transit/shipping.
Art, I just saw an ad, gun store, for a used Santa Fe Hawken .... $1,600+. I've got one I would sell for that DaleSoon they will all be over the Two Grand mark. Plus, us guys who want these things, really want them, and will pay the price!
