I think we can all agree that Superstorm Sandy didn't do Rohrbaugh any favors.

Sandy was definitely a problem, although damage at the factory itself was minimal.  There was, however, an enormous personal toll.

I can't argue with the analysis of profit over the years.  Even if the numbers aren't quite right, no one was getting rich selling the number of guns they did.  The irony of that is compounded by the fact that the market was strong and they could sell every one they could make.

There is an interesting story to be told here...someday.  Nothing earth shattering, but a lot of stuff that just didn't go quite right, leading to a sale that no one really wanted to make. 

Karl and Eric are great guys that did something great -- that ultimately did not work out as they planned for many reasons beyond their control.  I don't want to pry into their personal business to say a lot more than that.

Thanks, Duane; there had to be more than met the eye on this evolution.
