huggums, EGLF.OB shafts use scandium alloy? What's a set estimated to cost?

"Its overall concentration in the Earth's crust is roughly 5 parts per million. That means 500 tons of material would have to be processed to obtain 5 pounds of scandium. The market price of scandium today is in excess of $7,000 a pound."

Huggums, Smith & Wesson uses the alloy in handguns! Must only need a small amount for the alloy.
