Post Answers to Questions by Steve, Dwight others

If you want something done on time I probably don't fill the bill. This is stated as an apology for taking so long to answer questions ask by Steve Richards 11/14/02 , Dwight Gruber, Aaron , Tacfoley, and Unspellable on 9/24/02. On Dec 07 I talked to Mr. R.E. Romo jr at the Saxet show in San Antonio. First question as to why did he chose stainless steel vs gun metal for his American Eagle? Factors such as easy to machine , use of casting, durable finish, all factors but the main and overriding factors was he wanted to create something new that would stand by itself and not be just a copy. He did some market research and it confirmed his belief that a new production blued gun would not only be compared to guns that had much hand work etc but would be priced as a competitor {used po8 vs new}. Therefore the decision to go SS was first to make something that would sell, and a copy to compete with the original would not do that. Second question is there going to be a book about the American Eagle/ Yes, a Mr. Klaus Meyer of Dallas , Texas is gathering information at this time. [Again sorry it took so long].
