Of course they would continue to offer quality suppressors and expand that product line (we've already seen what they plan to introduce), but I don't think they'd be taking such a huge leap forward if the investment capital wasn't there. And I agree that they should maintain competitive pricing, but then again they've got to pay for R&D somehow. I guess time will tell.
