I find firearms odd that way where it's less expensive to build a rifle yourself from components purchased separately. That was never the case in my experience in the world of cycling. It was always less expensive to buy a complete bike than build one yourself.
Its cheaper to build a better rifle than to buy one but the store bought one will still sell for more money even if its worse.
