masterpiece arms discontinue mpa380 protector

Jed at GunsGunsGuns.net just told me that Masterpiece Arms MPA Protector .380 / .32 pistols series has been discontinued and they have been removed from the Masterpiece Arms online catalog.

These pistols were based on the SeeCamp design, but at a much lower cost, and came in a wide variety of finishes. It is a pity they are no longer being produced.

i had one and it wuz a piece of garbaggio.
Trigger bar kept slipping into Neutral requiring disassembly. Customer Service never ever ever (i'm missing a few evers) got back to me.
But still not as bad as the Diamondback Firearms 380 i bought. That one I personally drove back to the factory twice to correct stovepiping plus a catastrophic loss of firing pin and backplate. They tried blaming it on my cheapo crappy Hornaday Critical Defense trash and told me to only use good stuff. For a while I was believing them too, it's my fault, I'm in the wrong, it's my fault.
Like many many others; i would get it back a couple of weeks later after they thoroughly and meticulously performed zilch on it :(

Evidently their service has been discontinued as well. No one answers phone or returns calls/emails for parts. Caveat emptor.
