Colt to Suspend Civilian sells of AR's

Yawn...

I still have one of these circa 1998. It's an abomination, but it has a home.

At different times, oversize front pivot pin hole, screw retained front pivot pin, sear block, oversized FCG pins take your pick.

Well the price of Colt's just went up. Typical Colt timing to do this during a gun control push/election cycle that will drive demand up.

While I am a Colt fanboy, the timing of this is not coincidental I suspect. Ostensibly saying it’s because they need to focus on contracts is simply too convenient considering the BS going on.

Yawn...

Reactions like this and, “who cares, Colt sucks now anyway...” are very ignorant considering the current anti-gun environment. It does matter, and if you can’t figure out why, that’s concerning.

If what you're insinuating is that Colt is going the way of Walmart and other firearms and accessory manufacturers that have in the past excluded civilians from their products for political reasons, then they can definitely go suck an egg. Colt has rubbed me the wrong way for years with their "we're too good for consumers" attitude. If this latest move is a resurgence of that, then they can go the way of HK... Good riddance! I have zero sympathy for traitors.

Sorry if this offends, but it's time for everyone to pick sides: you're either for The People, or you're not.

You mean panicked and bought them out.

With the big box stores virtue signaling and colts strange history with the commercial market, this news seems convenient at best.

I doubt it’s true at all though and we’ll see steady stuff until a democratic candidate is chosen. At which time, commence hysteria.

Still a $hitpot of 6920-OEM1s out there for $705-775.
