Does no one else have a problem with buying a junk copy of an American battle rifle from the Chinese?

It seems inconsistent to me too that the kind of man who would want such a rifle as this...would be willing to accept a chinese knockoff.

But let me ask you a question, do you own a Ruger firearm? Did you buy it new? How about Levi Strauss & Co. Jeans? Dockers? Do you see where this is going? I think if you don't have anything positive to add to the post, you should take the High Road right on outa' here.

Like longhorn posted, $350 is just a good deal for any kind of rifle like that, even AK's are starting to cost more than $350.
Get it, for sure. You can buy it use it and sell it later for $350.
Shoot it, accrue magazines, tools etc. If you really like the platform and want something a little better you can pony up for a springfield/fulton whatever. You'll already have ammo, mags and tools around. If you aren't crazy about it you'll have a copy of an M1A to play around with without having thousands wrapped up in it.
