Winchester has been bankrupt and bought out a couple of times. Like somebody already said, some company will lease the name and start production. I just hope it's a U.S. company. USRAC relied on it's sister company Browning too much to cater to the specialty groups ( Trap, Skeet, ect. ). USRAC wasn't crap to begin with,... they never listened to what the public wanted, and obviously bankruptcy is going to be the result when you don't do that. They ignored the groups of shooters, ( Trap, skeet, sporting clays, rifle, ect. ) and went with " Oh well, one gun, and if they don't like it ,...oh well" attitude. I feel no mercy for them. When you have big shoots, such as ATA state shoots, you should have reps there pushing those guns, listening to the shooters and their feedback. They didn't care, and NOW they whine like EEyore, " Oh bother, Christopher Robin, come pin my nuts back on ". They won't find any sympathy from me... if they want sympathy, they can find it in the dictionary between Sh*t and syphyllis. If Oliver Winchester could have seen what USRAC did to his name, he would roll over in his grave. I am a Model 12 shooter so I DO like Winchesters....REAL Winchesters.
