A friend has a 475 Wildey with two magazines and wants a third one. Finding one sounds like a hopeless cause to me?

The New Wildey Co. went into business way under capitalized. The owner owned several screw machine shops and planned on using money from them to keep the gun business going until it could support it's self. Covid hit at about the same time as the gun business started and his screw machine business had a drastic reduction in revenue and he could not keep the gun business afloat. The phone works as his gun shop is in the same building as his screw machine shop and his daughter runs both offices. Many buyers who had down payments had a lot of trouble getting their guns shipped and I believe that a good number of them got stuck. Wildey Moore, the originator of the gun, tried to get the Company back but the owner would not give it up and chose to do nothing with it. Wildey Moore has since passed away.

I tried to contact them for parts and info on the 44 AMP barrel assemblies they were advertising…no response. If you search around, people report being able to put in orders and pay down payments but then never getting any additional correspondence.
Wildey Survivor, Auto Mag/Automag, Hudson H9, Thompson Center, German Sig Sauer X5/6, etc… It’s a huge bummer that great products I love keep failing. I’m very hopeful that the T/C reboot is more successful than the others have been. The American Sig P226 X5 also seems promising. The Daniel Defense H9 doesn’t interest me much, given the lack of parts compatibility with the original.

Thanks for the response. I would like to contact them and funny thing is I’m within driving distance from where they are me. Was looking to order one but I can’t now because of the new laws, so I would like to get a couple of barrels though.
