I can give you the contact info of an AD in Toulon. The model we bought is €2,390 retail. €2,000 shipped, insured, all in is what we got paid via wire. In stock and ready to go.

Don't get that. Very unique.

I think it's very fairly priced to the market.

It's not a "micro"

Is it a normal NATO, or a regular two piece strap with NATO like hardware?

It's a two piece strap with nato like hardware. Here are some more pics in this link:

I'll be wearing mine on regular natos because the stock strap is too long for me.
