When the RBL 20 was announced, I placed an order for one. When I was visiting NJ, prior to our RBLs being delivered, Builder and I called ahead to CSMC for a tour. We were met by Tony Galazan and he took us on a personal tour for at least an hour. He was humble and polite. They had an impressive operation.

In the years since, I've bought a set of Parker Reproduction barrels from them and they were very high quality.

A friend here had 3 CSM guns, 2 M21s and a Fox in 410. The 21s seemed to give durable duty, but the tiny framed Fox 410 broke ejectors and other parts enough that CSM had the gun longer than my friend in the few years he owned it. So he sold it cheap.

I think CSM has been in a rapid growth phase for the past 10 years or so and is having growing pains. I'd still like to see them succeed.
