Ask Tony Galazan at Connecticut Shotgun if making only 2000 guns a year with many costing as much as a new truck or house if he can make it. Quality doesn't cost, it pays - someone once said. Comparing a new Ithaca to a new Mossberg or 870 is like comparing a Rolls to a Yugo.
If things weren't going so well, would they have invested in the tooling to start making 1911s again?
