Can anyone tell me the story of steyr ownership now and have the gun prices gone up in value?

Rifles, pistols, or bullpups?

Steyr merged with Mannlicher sometime in 1950s, Teutonic, but I've not heard anything about any more recent mergers or takeovers. I do know that Steyr makes one heck of a fine 9mm pistol, the M-A1. I have one and it shoots like a dream.

For a while I know the factory was moved secondary to the location of the factory being so valuable it did not make since to manufacture guns there. Machinery moved and they geared up production again. However, it that interval the pro hunter rifles went up in price, just not sure how much.
