Produce only deluxe and higher end models of respected models that people are willing to spend a higher price tag on, such as the 700 BDL and CDL, 870 Wingmaster, and so on. Offer plenty of calibers and options to go along with them. Quality and attention to detail should be the order of the day rather than getting product out the door. There are still many people who will pay a handsome price for a gun that is done right, go after this market. Let other firms chase pennies in the low cost gun market. Just look at Kimber, this is exactly what they are doing.
