This is possible, although I think part of the problem is that a lot of the good Moro stuff has dried up - hence, little talk on the forum. I have not seen a lot of really good Moro stuff in the past few years.

But on this other part, maybe there is something to it. Don't know. Of course, as the economy picks up in the Philippines, more money will be placed onto Philippine weaponry (beginning to start already) and I expect more drying up of Moro stuff and prices in a few years to go up.

Still surprised that this piece got up so high. For me this still flies in the face of what we have said so far.
