Update on Cooper Rifles

I just got off the phone with Glenn.

They have M52 mags in stock now in case anyone needs one. They will need to know the caliber, and desired finish, blued or SS.

Apparently there will be some more of the Montana stock showing up but if I heard correctly they may be getting to the end of that. Then something different but based on more stock they received from Montana however with a Colt twist. Apparently there was a 2012 Colt deal with Cooper where they had a lot of the stock ready to start builds but Colt started having issues in 2013 and bankrupt in 2015. I think he referred to it as a legacy line or something like that. Anyhow, might be interesting to see what that's all about.

On to the net new "Cooper Rifles of Arkansas" builds in 2025.
He was thinking they might have something for shot show but current timelines are after Q1. The initial rifles will be all new design from Nighthawk in the Cooper name, those will all be LA, blued, and wood. I think he said Turkish walnut. I said kinda Cosmi like? (I think he shuffled on his feet) anyhow I got the impression along those same lines. Basically my take away is their wholly new models will be pretty high end but it's part of nighthawkcustom . com so that's not a huge leap.
 
I have several and have been thinking of selling a couple but I haven't been able to bring myself to do it. I don't shoot any of them much anymore as I haven't had them threaded for a can. I used to be on rimfire central and Saubier but haven't kept up with what is going on with Cooper. It would be nice to see them get back to what Cooper used to be.
