FAS 607 for rapid fire - great choice but who supports them?

I tried my friends FAS 607 .22lr for rapid fire and it felt great. The low bore proved to recoil smoothly and straight back. The rolling trigger seems to be optimal for this new game, as one can use the roll to go from one target to the other.

However, who supports these guns? Who fixes them? Who supplies parts? I know that Potter Firearms in AUS appears to support them but no one in the USA appears to deal in them.

I heard (via Nygord) that no one would touch them due to quality going down - but I also heard that lately the quality has come back up.

With the rapid fire game doing to .22lr I would think that this would give life to these guns again... can anyone comment.

Talk to Warren (Potter) at Pilkington. He has a ton of experience with FAS, and can get you what you need.

From what I have seen with the FAS APs, quality is not the main concern. Their (FAS) service is the issue, and getting parts can be a problem.
