PHH closing its doors

It seems that Pittsburgh Handgun Headquarters is going out of business. I'd spoken to Jim the other day. He'd told me that they aren't taking on any additional gunsmithing work, and that everyone is retiring.

*PHH is a prominent supplier of parts and services for Colt revolvers.

Does that just leave Cylinder and Slide and Colt to work on these guns, that is if they have the parts? Wonder what they'll do with their part supplies.

There are a few individual gunsmiths as well - e.g. Grant Cunningham.

Colt seems to be cutting back on their support for the earlier revolvers, even the post WWII classics. So C&S and smiths like Cunningham may be the only option for many guns.
