“Colt Firearms will be ending its production and sales of its AR-15 rifles due to lack of public demand amid excess market capacity,” American Military News reports.
“Colt released a statement on Thursday to clarify the decision, which was made because the company simply isn’t selling enough of the rifles in the civilian marketplace to continue devoting the resources into it — a pattern that may be attributed to Colt rifles’ $1,000+ price tag and a market supplied with lower priced competitors.”
