Contained in the US Army's FY07 Budget document:
"Colt's present production is 6000 per month on M4 carbines which required a cessation of commercial deliveries. Production in 2006 will increase by adding a second shift to meet Supplemental requirements. The sustainable max. production rate can be increased to 10 thousand a month with a guarantee of continued production. Other orders received could impact planned schedules."
Does the "cessation of commercial deliveries" also include Law Enforcement or are those considered non-commercial transactions?
