Grizzly,

Since I handled that rifle, I know that they had it and it was for sale. In fact they had two of them, one slightly different than the other as I recall. That other one is no longer on their website. I'm willing to bet that they are awaiting delivery of a couple more. So they are out of stock. But the rifle is their house branded rifle, and who know who the next maker will be, if Thys is totally retired, or even if he is not. Not unlike the English trade where guns with one maker's or retailer's name might have been made by another maker and maybe finished by yet another....

Its been awhile since I handled the particular rifle on their web sight and the one that isn't there anymore too, maybe eighteen months. Who knows when it was sold or whatever. You are reading way too much into the fact that that particular rifle is no longer available. Especially since it is but one example of their house rifle.

As far as customer service, well, they've always been a little weak there, and it has been a pain at times to get hold them (read Paul Chapman here since he is the fellow I prefer dealing with) or to get anything done quickly. But not so weak that I quit dealing with them or too weak for G&H to have been sucsessful in the high end of the business for eighty three years.

Email is a hell of alot less tagible than a guy on the other end of the phone. And a guy on the other end of the phone is a hell of alot less tangible that a guy standing in front of you.

My 2 cents worth,

JPK
