Been to tied up in my own issues to put too much to paper (or is it electrons?). Got one more trip this year, then slide home!
RE: Colt (as mentioned by a commenter), who knows? First, let me relate a quick story...last month I was sitting in the offices of a firearms company CEO B-S'ing when his phone rang. He looked at the number and took the call; when he hung up, he started laughing.
"You're not going to believe this," he said. "That was the [fill in the name of a big, recognizable bank], who are handling Colt. They want to know if I'm ready to write the check, 'cause Colt's finally ready to sell."
"Are you?" I asked.
"Good question," he replied. "There's not much there there."
I'll make some phone calls, but there's nothing in the financial press.

Although word has it "New Colt" is the asset for sale --not much interest---more interest in the "Archieves" of old Colt stuff.
Probably time for the bottom feeder/auctioneers to make an appearance?
