By coincidence, I just exchanged emails with Michael, asking if he only manufactured parts, or if he was prepared to offer complete rifles. He replied that he did plan to offer complete rifles and offered to call me up to talk about it. Since my interest is purely theoretical, I simply wrote back, asking if he could give me a price estimate on a complete rifle. I have not yet received an answer.

I had previously exchanged emails with him, asking if he was prepared to offer replacement spring loaded pins from the take-down model M/S. He replied in the negative, but I see from another post that he has since changed his mind, perhaps on the basis of being asked to repair one such pin with a broken spring.
