When Ruger cancelled production of its Old Army revolver, everyone knew economics motivated that decision. Fair enough. Ruger is a business that seeks to make profit off its products. But thinking about this matter led me wonder if a similar fate awaits the proposed USFA 1858 Remington revolver that has been discussed at THR. Now why would I ponder this?
While USFA has a reputation for marketing fine firearms, those guns are not inexpensive. If the proposed USFA 1858 Remington is also an expensive piece, then is it not possible that it could price itself out of the BP market as did the ROA? This idea does not seem like an unreasonable possibility.
