Dean, Tonys earned every dime he has made I was just hopeful the good news would stay on my side of the ledger. Edgar, I suspect the new Rolls is for sundays best, a Mercedes is the daily-driver, and a slightly used Mercedes serves as the winter salt-shaker.

No argument from me on that point Craig. For a man who started working on guns and trading them from his Dad's garage, I'd say he's done pretty darn well.
My point was that his changing his production and business model over from classic sporting arms to modern high-capacity and high fire rate arms will prove good for Tony and his employees.... but not so good for those of us who have come to search out his wares on the Internet as well as major SXS venues.

From the descriptions of Tony provided by those of you who know him best, sounds like he and Ansley Fox would have gotten along famously.
