The colt router need little that would change the basic form. It is well received and I think most guys still find it one of their favorites. It’s the accessories that most have issue with. I bought the plunge base for the colt and LOVE it. Makes a great high quality base. They need to do the same for a small fixed base.
The other things I want are somewhat cosmetic, and I think could be easily done. Especially the LED and small fixed base with DC. The swivel cord would need a retooling on the housing, but worth it IMO.

Self employed Pro since 2014!!the thing about the dewalt trim router which is the exact same as the porter cable, doesnt exactly feel like a trim router. is much bigger than the colt but the same power i believe.. ill stick with the colt or upgrade to a festool
heres a tip, dont fart in a space suit
That’s true. Power vs size few compete with the colt. And it fits the hand very nicely.

Self employed Pro since 2014!!The colt is a great little router, it would be nice if they did add some of these little additions to make it have all the things the mrc23 router has.
Does the fixed base have a micro adjuster? I own the Makita compact router and this is my only complaint with it…It really should be easier to change the depth in small increments. It has a buckle like latch (it appears that the Colt is the same) that you open and then slide the motor up or down in the base. It’s a gross adjustment at best.
