| The story on the SASS wire is the owner got tired of making the best single action on the market and decided to make a new 22 caliber thing.
The big problem with the company was always the wait time from order to delivery. |

| Sounds like maybe the SA was too labor intensive and making a 22 that looks like a staple gun would be easier.Too bad. |

| Glad I got a bunch of them...even some in classy nickle with fancy wood grips...looks like they will be rising in value. Nobody does Nickle as nice as those USFA SA's I can tell you and the factory case hardened ones I have were done by Turnbull and are beautiful. What a shame.....Colt SA's don't even compare. I was wondering why I have not seen many on the market. |

| That is the way it goes with low volume producers; not enough people buy them for them to make it a going business, and then when they go under, everyone wants one. |

| The demand was always larger than the supply. Was never able to find much more than there basic models in stock. |

| That defies the laws of economics. If there was a demand, and the price allowed for a "profit", they would still be making them. What I saw was that no one was buying enough of them to sustain their business. People saying that they now "want one" is too little demand, too late. |

I actually ordered two of them and was told a 6 month back log at minimum.They had plenty orders. |
