Ol Mike, towards the end of last year many of the short mag senderos were being clearanced out.Around that time it was fairly common to find new 300 or 7 saum senderos for $600. or less.I bought a 300 saum sendero and on the box sticker,owners manual and barrel it is definately marked sendero.It was the same story with the stainless,synthetic short mag BDLs earlier this year.It was no problem to get one for a little over $300.They sold quick but Id be surprised if some dealers still dont have quite a few around.
