Thank you Waidmannsheil, much interesting feedback.

L&O Holdings (Luke & Ortmeier, who own Mauser, Blaser, Sauer, Rigby, etc.) are unfortunately not an exception to the rule in an era where manufacturing techniques allow profit maximisation and where the bulk of customers buy first a brand before buying a product. As you fairly highlighted it, their products are quality ones however not meeting with specialist customers' expectations when it comes to the detail.

By chance, some specialised rifle makers can still make our dreams reality!

Best regards.
