It could not be done for $200.00. Between the barrel, (this one has air gauged Douglas match barrel although a barrel of this quality isn't necessary) the receiver and the rest of the hardware, it cost more than that to make. I don't think it would ever sell "widley" but then when I think of the huge amounts of money people spend on all the after market stuff and work on the Markll and the 10/22, I can't help but to think that a lot of them could be sold for similar amounts. Think of the number of people who would love to own a Mark ll rifle.
