Anyone own one of these?  Considering the going rate of a real Russian Tigr/SVD, and considering that Romak III "Dragunovs" (which aren't really Dragunovs at all) are going for $750 at best, I'm wondering how one of these guns would fare as an investment, since only 1000 were imported.  Caliber is .308 which I handload for already.

CDNN has them for $1699 but I'm already seeing them sell on Gunbroker and GunAmerica for over $2000.  And yes they are preban of course.

A couple of decent pics from Dragunov.net:

i always see a couple of those at local gunshows for sale around 2000.00. they have been making the rounds for 3-4 years by the same dealer. It doesn't look like there is much demand or market for them.

Not sure i would buy one for an investment. Might be difficult to unload down the road.

CDNN has been advertising these for at least the last couple of years.  If there only really were 1000 imported, then that seems to say that the demand at that price point just isn't there.  I think you can get alot more rifle for $1700...
