   If you look most/all of those refurbs are "out of stock" when you click   
   on them.  I think they put them up with an inventory count of 1, and   
   then never take them down when they sell.   
      
   I seem to recall that the guy who started Hatsan USA made the claim way   
   back when that they didn't want to sell their gas pistons for people to   
   put them in other guns.  I think he just wanted to extra money of doing   
   upgrades, but who knows.
