This says their contract is estimated to be completed by Sept 2024:

That's a few years out. Tacking on a little padding bumps us to 2025.

So, hopefully early to mid 2025.

Seems like an awfully long time to be completely absent from the AR15 market, though. I'm a little surprised that there isn't a single licensed/outsourced Colt AR15 of any flavor.
