I assume based on lead times... but that's not to say for sure as there could be other factors that affect lead times.

They are a boutique manufacturer just like most custom 1911 shops that you have never heard of. Why spend money on marketing if demand is already exceeding your capacity?
Interestingly found this, looks like they were trying to raise $2 million late 2017 to pay off debt. At least I think that's what this says.

If that's right then that doesn't sound good for a company that small.

Really? Not being my usual smart ass here but I thought they were pretty well known in the gun world.

I’m with you on that. I’m just not at all a 1911 guy. They bore the **** out of me. But...if I were to have a 1911 framed gun, the Coonan would at least be interesting.

Just my opinion but if it's a high power 1911 you want, 10mm makes a lot more sense than .357.
