There is substantial, ongoing market for several basic types of firearms which are heavily customized after sale. Gun manufacturers understand this.This means you are going to continue to see new 1911's, AR's, fighting shotguns and tack-tickle handguns & gear galore.

I'm in my mid 50's and I've been watching this stuff closely since I was about 12. It used to be custom DA revolvers and I thought Jesus, how many people are going to spend $600 on a $250 thirty-eight? LMAO!
