Let's be realistic. The only things that I can see lacking from their lineup is an LE A4 model, and a flat-top pencil barrel model. It would be cool if they offered some different SOPMOD configurations, but most people don't want a mil. SOPMOD configuration, so the wouldn't sell.
If they configure with stock/rail A people will bitch, if they configure with stock/rail B people will bitch. They are a high production facility, not a custom shop or boutique retailer.
Once again, Colt will never offer a lineup of 1911s like Kimber and never offer the plethora of M4 configurations that BCM does. They make arguably the best base 1911 (S70 re-issue, yeah they listened!) and almost unarguably the most tested and proven base M4 available.
I think Colt is scrambling with this "tactical" nonsense because they don't understand what the hell you people want.
So what do you want?
