Having bought one I can understand why, if in fact they are dropping it. The gun is so poorly designed it can't compete with Smith & Wesson or Sig Sauer.
No longer shown on their web site. Think that maybe they dropped this piece of junk?

Uh....Colt never had it on their official website. The guns have always been featured on their own website at: http://www.colt22rimfire.com/
Piece of junk? Mine is anything but; spoken by one who probably doesn't even own one. Typical.
Or more likely spoken by someone who does own one.
Made by Umarex not Colt.

Why don't you guys give it a rest already. It just seems you enjoy bashing this gun. There is nothing wrong with the gun itself. It shoots fine, is accurate and well built. Get over it already.
Fact is a lot of us that bought the Colt/Umarex M4 did so thinking that anything with the Colt name on it would be a great gun. This gun is not well built or designed and I predict that it won't be around much longer as sales drop.
Not well built to whose standards? Again you place an opinion. My opinion is it is well built. Mine has not fallen appart or exploded out like the S&W has been reported to. Quit the bashing already and move on.
What you take as bashing is just my observations with the one I bought. Mine did start falling apart the first time I shot it, the safety fell out on the 3'rd magazine. The trigger is awful and there's nothing I can do about it, cleaning is a nightmare since you can't field strip it. If you think this is a great gun I'm happy for you. I'm just agreeing with the original poster who started this thread.
