I do not know all the details but I will share what I know. The lining business was separated off from all of Teague's other products and sold to the man who originally developed the process for Nigel Teague, his name is Jon Corner. When I became the representative Jon had just taken over the lining from Nigel. The cost of providing the service went up dramatically due to several factors. Shipping rules for firearms have changed and Jon modified the process to include re-laying the ribs, which of course required a barrel re-finish. I'm not sure what exactly led Jon to give up offering the service as he stopped taking my phone calls and replying to email at the time the service was canceled. He never even informed me, I learned through other contacts I have in the UK that the service was no longer being offered. I think the idea is sound, but executing it is not easy and making it profitable may be nearly impossible at this point in time.
