For the last 20yrs Colt has relied on it name only. There are plenty of AR that are much better than a Colt.
Quite true, but many people still go wild for the Pony rollmark and "C" markings on the rifle.
Newer Colts are actually made pretty well, especially their SOCOM barrels, but they're all outsourced to OEM manufacturers now instead all parts being made in-house.
Colts also still hold pretty good resale value, for whatever that's worth, but, yes, there are many other options out there now in the same price range. Old timers and cloners and Vets are essentially all Colt has now as a customer base.
BCM and DD have now all but replaced the old Colt civilian market share.

KAC is supposed to be one of the best ARs out there but hard to come by.
I have 2 Radians that I wouldn’t trade for any other AR.

Yeah the Zion has replaced the 6920 as the go-to AR for under $1k. Colt does make the 6960 but it’s about 10 years too late.
