In all honesty, despite my general appreciation for and enjoyment of Chris’ work, I have no interest in what he has to say on this.
He has been gone from the company for many years and can only pass on information that has no more validity than what has been issued by Colt spokespersons. But... Adding to a rumor mill is good for his Patreon and channel. So I guess I might tune in for a bit just to support.
It’s not really an ambidextrous lower, though...
I see your point, because it only has an ambi safety.
Here’s the break down:
Colt sees a saturated AR market and chooses to downsize work force.
Colt has new contracts to fill with worth $130 million +. Colt sees this as a temporary boom and chooses not to hire extra labor and chooses to shut down the commercial production and use more of their labor to fulfill contractual obligation.
A vendor calls Colt for a large order. Colt gives the vendor a clue. Colt lets the rest of the big vendors in on clue.
Vendor leaks info out to gun gossip page.
Gossip page ruins the internet.
Colt has to answer customer because social media.
News media sees this as something they can twist into supporting their narrative.
Idiots on the internet believe media narrative.
Internet people come to this thread and bash Colt.

Yesterday, coming back from work, i heard from an italian radio station (i'm italian) the news. The speeker said that colt will stop sales of ar15's to the civilian market because that is the most used rifle in mass shootings. Crazy. Liberal peopaganda is out of control here in Europe :/
Does anyone know if Colt will continue to supply AR parts, to the civvie market ?
I do not know if it was already asked, in this thread.
Will Colt continue to supply AR parts ?
