    IIRC Fred has Thompson Center's casting company doing his bolt handles. The problem is that TC also does a large majority of the parts casting for many of the major gun manufacturers. Fred's "small" orders of 500 or 1,000 pieces aren't worth TC's time right now to change over a machine for a half or full day to run his parts when they have orders for tens or hundreds of thousands of pieces from the big boys. Bigger/more profitable orders will always take priority in the casting business.

    +1 , all small companies have back orders with suppliers.

    I have had a bolt handle and bolt head order from these people for over a year. I cant even get them to answer an email . Lesson learned but it cost me $ 105.00 I would not recommend anybody to do business with them,
