Between the Colt forum, 1911 forum and 1911Addicts forum there are A LOT of people who have gotten them. And I mean A LOT. I’ve yet to see any mention of a recall? And the main moderator on the Colt forum has said nothing either. There were very few that had issues with a dinged muzzle crown. I’ve seen pics of it and am not even sure I’d send one back for something so tiny. I’ve also read and seen a few just a few accounts of the cylinder not turning like Hickok experienced. But again have not seen an overall recall of the whole lot of them. What I have seen and read is that Colt has not yet been able to reproduce the issues we have seen with regard to the cylinder. I consider it to be some small growing pains. The new Python isn’t going anywhere and will be around for quite some time.
Don’t let the keyboard complainers turn you off.

I am not worried about colt getting it correct, this will work it self out. Not their first rodeo.

I do still think its weird it happened.

I agree . But I have spoken with my Distributor Rep. ( I work in a Gun Store) There IS a Recall. Colt WILL get this "fixed". Whatever it is. Then they'll be available. I WANT one, and WILL Get one. But I can wait till they get the whatever it is solved. Probably some Minor thing.

“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” Thomas Jefferson
