Colt had a monopoly before
then other companies joined in
Thats cause their patent ended and other companies hopped on
its not that hard to make a rifle
lmao that's basic knowledge
Its difficult to make good NODs, which is what everyone wants
Yeah but just because demand goes up doesn't mean price will go down because 4 companies do all the production
Why do you think the Chinese just steal Gen 3 tubes instead of making it themselves?
If it was a competitive market, sure
@CDRCC did you seriously think other companies didn't make ARs before just because
Even the russians do this
>your argument being that demand going up will completely not affect the market and thus we may as wlel shut out the poors
mfw
Fuck poor people
that's not my argument
either
Poors should be smarter
>not realizing the poors sometimes get more money and buy cooler stuff, thus making the market bigger
and you coddling them doesn't help
Commercial demand means nothing to the companies making NODs
How many fucking retards with AR's do you see any time you go to a public range
Why does that matter when we're talking about NODs?
It's the same as helmets tbh, civilian demand went up but prices never went down because 4 big companies control the market
The entire point is the AR-NVG analogy here
it's not perfect but it can absolutely be representative
Which is a bad one tbh
No it can't
no one in the defense industry even gives a fuck about civis lmao
That's such a shitty analogy
Lmao
You can make your AR in your garage
You need a fucking lab to make NODs
bruh its a digital camera
Horrible comparrison
>not realizing that digital NVG's will rapidly become better
it will
Thermal tech is all digital and is moving up by leaps and bounds every year
