Found it: 12 hours a day a father and his 2 sons can make 5 handguns a month for $115 each. So roughly 6 days a gun with no days off. Mainly 1911’s.
As another poster stated, you only need a couple of rounds to get someone else’s. I don’t think these would last more then 100 rounds top.
Maybe it was time lapsed but they had it built and racking the slide and test during it really quickly.
The only reason I remember it is be my sister is from the Philippines and had a rice business and I was joking about if she knew of a village where I could send money to start up my own gun import operation.
Yes, thats it, holy heck weird i have a false memory of $450 per gun ??.
Yeah, wonder what the working life of one of those pieces are. I doubt they're doing range time , so really just doing the taking out trash business end. !00 rounds then is prob fair trade off for $115
They say “welded” but I didn’t see any welder there or enough electricity to power one or gas cylinders, probably soldered.
At least a few rounds I’d imagine, big time players get real stuff imported I’m sure.
That’s 575 a month which is quite a bit in the Philippines if you don’t live in a major city.
My brother and sister in law send her brother who’s still on a waiting list for immigration the last 20 years even with immediate family here for years $500 and sometimes more a month.
They came on vacation for the max time 60-90 days, I can’t recall and all the low life neighbors stole everything from them because it’s not fair they get money from Americans.
They moved and the wife stopped bragging so it wouldn’t happen again.
The brother also had to leave his wife at home when his mother died in 2019 because his wife was 6 months pregnant and could possibly have it on American soil even though they promised to only stay two weeks.
Yet the border is wide open and anchor babies are being dropped by invaders every day.
