Hate to reference reddit here but:

And I looked at their social media, hasn't been a post on anything since December 11th.
Doesn't look good
Here's their booth at SHOT show:

What's wrong with Reddit?
What did Hudson make?
They make that striker fired 1911 kind of thing
Oh I remember that now.
If you bought one, hang on to it for a few years and you'll be able to sell it for Mateba-levels of cash.
Just enough Glock to piss off the 1911 guys and just enough 1911 to piss off the Glock guys.
I can?t be the only one who would be surprised if they were flying off the shelves.
Weren’t they the biggest thing at SHOT last year?
Hudson's big problem is that they were trying to sell a new gun for a high price in a market where most of the money is to be had in selling injection-molded tactical tupperware, so they're likely to never be more than a niche company pitching to the cool-gun hipster crowd.
Couple the niche market for their product with the difficulty of bringing an entirely new gun design to market, and it's pretty clear the odds were always going to be against them, even with all of the good will generated for them in the press and online.
Well, it looked cool.
Was watching vids about the H9 last night when I saw this brought up elsewhere. Realized there is a reason why every long gun and hand gun I own (model/pattern) was trialed by a first world mil.
