Well after this e-mail there seems to have been an amendment to the prices
or it may have merely been a bug:

The Colt is now:

Maverick M4A1 Carbine

current price
$4,312

projected price
$6,131 (+42.19%)

$6100 odd is such a vast improvement over $24,000.

Now if we could only all go Terrorists where the decent guns are still
affordable.
