No offense but.. haven't I heard this story before?

Would be interesting if it really turns out to be true though.

First it started with the rumour of MASSIVE layoffs at the company, then the closing of SP in Europe I believe, and now this.

Maybe third time's a charm?

As was said before. The people are still around, they're just hiding behind GI Milsim.

Wonder if this means I can get a stupid cheap shocker soon.

Take care of it too. It'll soon be "rare".

Yes it is confirmed. My inside source tells me as of January Smart Parts doors will be closed for good. there are currently ZERO markers or parts on the shelves and the warehouse in California has also been cleared out. I was also told that most marker companies offering a .50 conversion kit have scrapped their plans to offer them. maybe this is the end we have all been waiting for?

5 out of 5 bananas!

And where did you hear this? Anything official or do we just have to trust you?

I heard it directly from the Sales Accounts manager himself 2 days ago. I tried to order a SP marker for a customer and that's when the news broke.

So is this the demise of 50 cal too?? Or will GI Milsim keep it running?

[WenULiVeUdiE]

Well that's a pretty damn good source...

Yeah I, found out when the warehouse called and told me to box up all of my Ion's because they were coming out of the store. Then I was told why, same thing you got Sterling. Let me know what marker your customer wants, and I will see if we have it in stock for you before we blow out what we have left in stock. I'll shoot you my #.
