Matt is in pretty poor health. It is taking him much longer to get things done in the shop. There are so many orders stacked up, he figured it is only fair to not take orders until we can catch up, and then may resume taking orders next spring.
Hopefully someone will buy the company and keep it going, as it has been a mainstay in muzzleloaders since I started shooting them over forty years ago, and Curly Gostomski was running it.
So saying, I may find my self out of steady work by the end of winter. I'll be taking on orders for custom work building flintlocks, so I would appreciate people spreading the word.

Consider it done, Ric!

I have an Early English on order now, I asked Matt to send it to you. Have been looking for a Trapdoor to send your way. Just haven't found the right one.

Got a call from Matt last Saturday that Ric was finishing up my Early English and I should have it by Monday. Glad I got my order in when I did as he said it is one of the last 10 Northstar West will make under his command.
