Time will tell.... <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Having product to sell to customers is very nice. But we need orginality that actually works. For example when BLI stomped into the scene a few years ago it changed the hobby mostly for the better. <br /> <br />Now having major companies buy each other out until 3 or 4 mega remain... that cannot be too good. <br /> <br />I suppose after pondering the issue... we should have seen this coming. Why? The products from LL must have had some attraction to Walthers. <br /> <br />Thank you for the tip on MB Klein, I remember his store in Baltimore and look forward to ordering wheels from them.
