The following is what I have 'heard' on the net, so it's gotta be true, right. I believe it was the guy from Haus of Arms who teamed up with SSK to make their version and as Pappy said that effort has went away also. The Owner of Haus of Arms I believe has moved to Cabool, Mo. I wish S&W would start back manufacturing T/C stuff even if on a periodic basis. Surely T/C was making even a small profit for them.

If S&W, with everything already in hand, doesn’t see a profit there, then it’s likely there isn't one, or not enough to justify the effort. Imagine then the possibilities for someone else trying to salvage the dregs. When Ruger bought the Marlin trademark and the parts and machinery, it’d deteriorated past redemption, so they had to start fresh. Actually that was a good thing for Marlin fans, as the new ones have been described by more than one reviewer as the best ones ever made. Naturally the price of the new ones reflects that, but better spendy than crappy.
Like Savage 99s, there’s probably enough used TC guns, barrels, and parts out there to keep the faithful in business.
