Here's an excerpt from the website of Alex Hamilton of Ten Ring Precision gunsmithing. He was one of their largest dealers so would be in a position to know:
"United States Firearms Manufacturing Company is now “out of business.” The building is empty, the lights or out, phone lines disconnected and the property is for sale. It is a shame this has had to happen to a first class firearms company making the finest guns in the world today, but I guess that’s the way it ends up sometimes."
Too bad. I had a matched pair of their Rodeo II revolvers (brushed nickel finish), gave one to my son and kept the other. I've owned a lot of Colts both old and new, and the USFA's were every bit as good as any of 'em. I'd say if you can find one you like buy it now - they ain't gonna get any cheaper!
