    I haven't heard anything about the release timeline, but here is a thread that was started about this topic.

    I think there MIGHT be another thread on this in the AR GD forum, but the search function isn't working right on my work computer.

    I'm sure I said it in the other thread, but if it's like most things Colt they will be a day late, a dollar short, and listen to input from a bizarre choice of "experts".

    This was first mentioned during this years SHOT show. So now almost 6 months later, there is still nothing new. Plus the URL that they registered is dormant and the Facebook page they started has disappeared. Not looking too promising...

    Colt has definitely established a pattern of joining the party late, and then showing up with new models which often arouse more curiousity than admiration, but what bothers me is that they put so little emphasis into staying relevant for the civil market.

    This whole "Colt Tactical" thing is confusing in the extreme. The boys roll into town for the industry's biggest symposium, set up their new displays, hang a few newish/reheated rifles on the wall, float a promising new URL and wait for us to work ourselves up into a lather.

    Well, Colt -- here we are. What seems to be the trouble with www.colttactical.com? How is it that you cannot even seem to figure out how to launch a placeholder page? I'll bet you could give a cool poster to a some 14-year-old at Hartford Middle School, and he could have something decent up and running in about an hour.

    I could do it in 20 minutes -- and you can keep the poster.

    Colt cannot seem to get marketing right, no matter how hard they try. Are they doing this "Colt Tactical" thing, or not? If so, is any of this still going to be relevant by the time they get around to fixing it? Colt is simply too big and too well-established a company to be making these kinds of errors, and the complete lack of follow-through here is simply beyond my comprehension.

    I've pretty much heard if you ain't Military or Law Enforcement, Colt doesn't want your business. Too bad.

    I don't believe that is the case at all.

    I would hope not. I wish they would go back to making Python revolvers personally.
