Rather interesting that the latest news on MH is posted on the Colt forum. If the CAD drawings were completed months ago, why the delay in production of rapid prototype (the rapid should tip them off)? That process will not ensure fit or tolerance. Tool steel is not 4140. The Freedom Arms argument is hardly viable - the cost of a new MH will compete with the collection market. The 454 filled a nitche but had no previously produced competitors. Why the secrecy on the other companies owned? Seems like that might quiet the skeptics...
