Demand.
The original vp9 sold out in a couple of months, and B&T realized there was a decent market for them, with effectively no competition. The new ones are going to be made in the US.

Weird. It's not an accurate repro, but you'd think they could do it better cheaper with modern techniques. Oh well I will never understand why people buy shit.

It's not a reproduction. It's just the same concept. It sells because it's interesting and has exactly zero competition.
The one place I saw them listed for sale online, is already sold out

Given the price, you think something more interesting could be done.

It come with two suppressors, and is a low production item. Frankly, I'm surprised it isn't priced higher.
