Thats Just an example. A good ACOG is north of a grand. Look at how much a LaRue rifle costs.
Its all relative I guess some have a gun safe full of rifles. High quality scopes today cost as much if not more than the gun in many cases, but I hear ya.
You have a link? Sounds like an interesting technology.
Well that’s more than a few thousand but as they mass produce anything it wiii drop. Those $500 calculators when I was taking Electronics classes in the 70s a $5 calculator can match it.
I see many uses :law enforcement, animal control, military etc. Those $5000 computers I was building in the 80s couldn’t hold up to a $500 clone. The Cray or mainframes of that era couldn’t either.
