They are not $1000, even in HK. They will still cost you $1420 - $1495 U.S. for a MAX. I bought mine for $1750 Canadian and even if I did order it direct from Redwolf, it would have cost me the same money.

Why not just import a MAX directly? If you can sweet-talk a customs agent into letting you bring one in directly, why not. They are designed to shoot 150 m/s and the limit that they've established to not be considered a replica is 124.5 m/s. They've beaten appellants to death with this number for other guns, why not this one? Likely, you'd have to surrender it to the RCMP for ballistics testing and wait perhaps a year or more to get it back. Then you'd have to be prepared to risk your investment with no guarantee of success.

If you're a gambling man, go for it.
