I wonder if we will see any super old NOS parts in the auctions?

They sent out a e-mail about assembling b/c stock bodies into guns last week for blow out prices. Sounds like desperate measures to move out inventory and raise capitol.

part of it is that they are consolidating their facilities and need to clear out anything and everything they can. doesn't look good, but entirely expected after they announced the consolidation and move.

What does this mean B? Does this mean that there will be a bunch of cheap cockers on the market soon?

I am interested in this as well. I have been thinking of putting together a Cocker to give it a try, and now would be a great time, given the potentially rock bottom prices.

Cheap cockers are always good.

Jeff Orr stated that they plan to continue service to all WGP products, so it's not like you'll never get the parts you need or service.

Im willing to bet Jeff Orr see this as his way out of any contracts with K2... Maybe we will see him go into "Carter-ish" mode where he makes one offs out of his house..

How retro

It means yet another round of sub par guns to hit the market for greed, instead of being scraped as they should have been.

I don't know about that B-
The "Trilogy" series was the first cocker that I actually liked. Before that, I always thought they were sloppy looking. The integrated front end was very clean looking. Shame that nobody else thought that way..
