There are no guide guns around my area to look at so I was wanting to know about what to expect in price?

I have a 1895GS .45/70 on order for the price equivalent of $1,100
But then I live in Rip Off Britain! Info that is not a lot of use to you I know, but some of you guys might like to know the sort of prices we have to pay over here.

Anyhow, Im looking forward to getting this rifle in a few weeks time.

What do you attribute the high price of this gun to? That's way over what the gun can be bought for in the States.

What does a pound of ground Coffee cost? (Folgers)

What does a gallon of milk go for?

Is the cost of living in England double what it is in the States?

Walmart has an 1895G listed for $429. This is blued with 18" barrel. I don't see a price for the stainless guide gun. Walmart also has the 1895XTR listed at $570. Stainless/laminate and 24" barrel. I would expect the XTR to be the high end so the price on a stainless guide gun would be lower than that but I'm guessing. Hope this helps......
