    I think they sold out ~500 in a little over 24 hours. No one knows if they will be selling more but rough estimates say there were around 5K manufactured by Colt for the USMC.

    Yeah they went quick. I just heard they may sell in batches. See what happens. Cool guns for sure

    Yeah, a bit of a feeding frenzy on these. I was lucky, had a friend that notified me for both batches so was able to get in on both of them. Yes, I could flip it for a crazy profit, but my interest in these is longer term.

    Only 728 of the "well loved" ones, and 451 of better condition ones have been released. So far, this seems to be it.

    I have a 362. Very capable saw and I only have a 20" bar on it.
