If Tony G. couldn't succeed in the SxS & upscale O/U market with no US of A competition & declining foreign competition why does he think he can succeed in the black gun market?
The black gun market is currently where the interest is but the competition is fierce & any company with capital & a competent engineering staff can enter the market. It evolves into who can produce acceptable quality at the lowest cost & that won't be done in the Hartford Conn. area.
Tony G. had a niche market & the ability to make some very nice & desirable shotguns that sold for high $$ but quality control & customer service was/is abysmal. That had to hurt sales in what is a small market.
He will be gone from all markets just like A.H.Fox was gone after a few starts.
