Well the Website is still running ( at lease it was easily googled) so I suppose someone (a student of PT Barnum's philosophy maybe) has paid the bill in the last year
Their Blog is dead though !
Truth is , none of us know how this particular Shell game is played or will play out.....
Personally, I think any parts were photographed then reassemble back into the Orginal guns they were from, either Merwin's or the Spanish Copies then sold perhaps.....
I'd hope I'm wrong, but I fear I'm not, the Flim- Flam operation has duped the City of Glenrock, Wyoming not to mention the people that sent in the non refundable deposits.
NEWSFLASH Dated 12/28/07
Today we have an update.
Hello to all our M&H Faithful.
1)The first Serial number sold will be SN 101. First come first served.
2)All deposits will go to our accounts which are held with Bank of America and or our backup accounts at Wells Fargo. Both of these banks are as stable as any in the country at the moment.
3)Use of deposits: The deposits will go towards expenses relating to production,sales, and core costs, and NOT salaries, vacations, corporate jets, million dollar pool parties with playboy bunnies, etc.
4)When? Good question. I believe in being open and honest with our customers so do I have an X date? No, but 12 months is the farthest out we are looking at currently for standardized production. I am looking at a date much sooner then that, but I don't want to over-promise and under-deliver.
This "honest with our customers" non-over-promise and under-deliver statement is fast approching 5 years !
PT Barnum indeed was right.
