With all the different sizes and propellant types it would be hard to automate. It mar be possible with something they turns over in inventory often like the Econojets but I could not see it for 54mm reloads. And the cost of the machine would probably be steep. I priced a motor machine when I ran Starlight. I was quoted $250,000 plus the special assembly building with a roof that would blow off so the walls wouldn't turn to shrapnel. You would have to sell a mess of motors just to get back your investment.
 
Well, fwiw, FlisKits has been running into some materials issues which has caused us to be out of stock on several kits. For example, we had a fair run on orders for kits that use the BT-70 and ran out a lot sooner than expected. As a result, we were out of stock on the Richter Recker for a while. We're all set now though, on that kit...

Hope to be back to normal, inventory wise, by the end of the month...
