    Wow, didn't expect that one. Then again they did turn their backs on the commercial consumer for years.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    I love when big companies think they can ignore the little consumer because they have high & mighty government/national contracts. And then the tides change and the shoe drops. Lookin' at you, H&K.

    Isn't this " Colt going bankrupt " a news headline brought up by some "expert" every couple of years for a long time now ?
    My T.P. wheeling and dealing feedback is here.

    Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one, and it stinks more than mine.

    Maybe if they would sell their 6920s with 10 round mags they could sell one. Since July 1 of last year, I have not seen a single one for a reasonable price. Walmart used to have them stocked when there wasn't a panic buy going on. Sig has been able to sell their AR with 10 round mags and I have to say it is a great gun!

    6920s have been going for super cheap for a while now. But not with the 10rd config.

    The whole gun industry is pretty much hurting right now. This is the correction from the panic that we (the consumer) have been waiting for.

    While retailers made a fortune during the panic, I'm thinking that said retailers are going to be worse off than they would have been had it not happened.

    It's OK. As the ultimate act of hipocracy, Obama will probably bail the company out like he did the auto makers.
