If only Thompson Center would come back with their old line up of side lock rifles AND the quality they were known for. Someone said (on here?) S&W may sell T/C to an investor group made up of shooters. I don't know. I may never buy an other S&W for what they did to T/C.Indeed. I’m beginning to suspect Covid hit Italian manufacturers much harder than we knew or know. Uberti and Pietta have struggled the past years but seem to be able to provide the bread and butter guns now. Pedersoli is a long step up in quality and their workforce may be more highly trained. In which case, replacing the fallen could be much more difficult. Who knows? Might be moot unless manufacturers gear up and offer percussion caps again and I’m not encouraged by what I see on that front…
