I don't think it's that serious. The pawl is probably hanging up due to tight tolerances. Simple fix...

At any rate, I wouldn't carry this for self defense anyhow, just for hunting and plinking. If someone were to have to depend on it for self defense, then that is cause for worry.

...... all the more reason not to be the first one in the neighborhood to have one, just like anything else, give them time to get the bugs worked out.

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

Agreed! Rule #1. Don't Rush to buy a New Release Firearm!
Wait a little bit. I think Colt will get that likely Minor Issue Resolved.
Maybe a Recall? Depends on how many are affected.
It would be Terrible for business if they didn't!
I STILL Want One!

Sorry, don't know how to shrink them
My Comments:I told everybody, I WILL have one. I Have one now! Scored it 2 weeks ago!
Have over 400 rounds through it now. Not one malfunction of any kind!
