Just got off the phone with my man there. They have been bought out. They are streamlining. The McMillan family was so customer oriented that they were losing money on a lot of the inlets, yet were losing a lot of customers due to 6-8 month wait on more common inlets (I’ll interject this is why we’ve seen several composite stock makers pop up the past few years). The way it was explained to me is a separate jig for every stock design then loaded into the CNC. They were spending 30% of their labor cutting 6% of their inlets. He said they can no longer spend 6 hours setting up and inletting 1 stock. So they still offer most of the more common ones, except for Savage. They are done with those, too many variables. They will make recommendations for a gunsmith who will inlet their flat tops which they still produce. There is are no doubt going to have some unhappy campers but are doing their best to mitigate the damages. Hell, they even called me, an Alaska nobody, at 7:00 in the morning.
Their intent is to be able to innovate with new materials and designs while cutting production time down to 8 weeks or less.
Their website should be updated hopefully next week to reflect what will and will not be available. Much like anyone knows who owns a serious sales website, that process is also slow and painful.
There you have it. [emoji1]
