I was pretty excited about that.

Yes. I saw Mr. Goulet's video. I think he had an almost exclusive deal with them and I am sure he was most disappointed to see them go under.

You know... Just the Omas name has to be worth a fortune. Someone should surely buy just the name, designs, stock and barrel. I have thought for some time that Visconti might carry on the name, but I am probably way off base.

If I had about 100 million more $$$s I would make a stab at it.
