COLT I don't understand.

colt made 1911s have been the status symbol. just feels right to have a 1911 that says colt.

There you have it.

1. what they make is good
2. people buy it
3. no one wanted to purchase sufficient numbers of the double eagle or colt 2000 to make it cost effective to produce.
4. those guns from no 3 are now sought after since discountinuation. they now have status for collectors who original considered them junkified abomonations when they were produced..

To be blunt...

1. Sometimes.
2. "Some" people buy them.
3. Wonder why? (rhetorical question)
4. Some people collect string.
