Thompson Center Arms Has Been Sold!!!
« on: March 03, 2005, 03:41:04 AM »
I heard a rumor on the phone this morning that Thompson Center Arms has been sold. :eek:

I decided to call and find out if it was true or not.

Yes it is... The young lady in customer care that I talked to informed me that the rumor is true. The purchaser is the co-host on "Game Trails" the TC television program. I believe his name is Greg Rich or Ritz.

From what I hear the business has been "for sale" since Warren Center died a year or two ago. :cry:

Anyway... Supposedly it will be "business as usual" according to one source and "big changes" according to another source. :cry:

I guess that time will tell. :roll:

Bob, you only found this out now? Thought pretty much all had known as this occured some time ago. It is in their latest catalog and in last month's HHI magazine as well.

Okay, so any speculations as to which changes we can or can not expect? Here's a start to the wish list if anyone wants to pitch in:

1. The return of the 10" Factory Contender Barrel.
2. The return of the stainless Contender Frame.
