They noticed that HFT was popular and getting some press in the mags and internet sites etc. They spotted that a few thousand people shot HFT with a PCP. So they produce the HFT500 and flog it at a hefty price knowing that HFT PCP shooters will buy them. Nice little earner.

There may be a few on here saying they'd like a lightweight 12fp AA break barrel. What will they have to sell them for and how much profit will they make? Probably little profit ... hence ... not happening.
I agree with all that but just wonder why they dont seem to want a piece of that sector of the market.
I guess springer development as far as the major manufacturers go has just ground to a halt.
