Here is my opinion based on what I have been told and read. I do not work for Colt nor do I represent them in any way but I have been in this game a couple decades now and somethings are evident.
Colt is not perfect, but nor is any other manufacture.
No offense! But, I don't give a rat ass about the AR 15. 👎😛 Instead, Colt should bring back the venerable Python in 357 mag! 🔫👍👌
If you look at the amount of rounds the average AR owner will put through their rifles , I suspect it would be less than a 1000 rounds. Just like hand guns, the majority will be shot a few times then lost in sock drawer. Colts are fine guns but they definitely aren’t the best bang for the buck. ARs are like computers, they used to be rare and cost a lot, not anymore that is the free market working.
no one has ever said what this "pressure" is, it's just a statement people use when they don't know what they are talking about. what pressure can an anti gun lobby apply to an arms manufacturer? not buy their products? they already don't.
Thanks.
Thanks for the explanation it helped clarify points I was wondering about!
