Much like S&W M&P 15-22 integrally suppressed rifles that no one can sell for shit, We bought one for the SOT associated with my buddies shop that does machine gun fun shoots in eastern NC. Got it from another buddies shop for 300 bucks after it had collected dust there for 2 plus years with nary a bite. With e-file only taking a few weeks at most now, Not enough people to make it economically viable for the manufacturer are going to go through the hassle for a.....toy at best, it's just soo much cheaper to do it yourself.
