Machining the selector stops off completely is no different than machining off the bottom half only. Changing from fire to semi would be the same as well. Having a vocal, active clone community will be essential to getting them to make the changes we want. CZ has been pretty receptive to the market, if they're flooded with emails from enthusiasts requesting these changes, I could see it happening. If they're not convinced it's a money maker, they won't change it. I think their first priority will be Quality Control, for the second priority I wouldn't be surprised if they do interesting things with the Colt Custom Shop handguns, maybe bring it in line with their Dan Wesson line. Or I'm talking out of my ass, this is all speculation. I definitely have my fingers crossed that CZ will mean a new golden age for Colt. |
