No price hike on MET pro, Unless your trying to sell them and want people to think the price is going up. If they are NIB get ready to fix the problems right out of the box. These have a lot of mechanical issues. Yes I do have one. Yes they do have issues more then others out of the box. Drop targets issues( reset on there own and don't drop when hit), dmd issues( lines showing up on there own in the display defective product). Not saying stern will not take care of it with sending new parts,, but who wants to fix something free parts or not, That you just spent close to 5k for? I would wait until a HUO comes up and by then the issues would have been taken care of.
