Default Gun prices

I looked through the Military Guns section, and will note that semi-automatic rifles (Swedish AG42, M1 Garand, FN49 and Johnson) list for about 3x the going rate in Canada. Lee Enfields (No1, No 4 and No 5) are about par or less. The misc bolt actions are variable.

Thats because semi autos in Australia were banned and then heavily restricted to farmers & vermin controllers only after Port Arthur massacre in 1996.
