By far the lowest price I've seen on this. About $1300 is the cheapest that I've seen before.

A lot of that happening this week it seems. 3 times now in my case.

I wonder how many sold at that price.  Good deal for sure....I was even tempted and I haven't purchased a new AR in years.

I have never seen this vendor.  Maybe the bills came due and they needed a quick windfall.  They probably still made $ on them.

Hadn't planned on a yet another AR purchase, but I would have been very very tempted by that rifle at that price.

Crap.  Just ordered one yesterday at list price.

Likely P&S / Prudent American Technologies.

Just the barrel could cost over $350. That was a good price and the last one I bought was about $1500.

Someone probably keyed the wrong price into their website.

It’s possible the wrong number was pushed but I saw it at the $999 price and I am pretty sure at the time it had the normal price with a slash through it and “sale” $999.

I am assuming this sight is legit???  I looked through all their Colt listings and saw a lot of things you don’t normally see, especially in handguns.  I will admit though, I don’t normally go looking for what I saw.

Blackstone is a local shop in Charlotte NC. I've never been there, but opinions seem to be mixed on the Carolina Firearms Forum. Some people like them, and some don't.

I saw it at 999 but I wasn’t familiar with the seller, so I didn’t order. It was a hella deal if orders went through.

They're advertising a flash sale on the home page so I doubt it was a mistake, just a really good price that didn't last long.

Blackstone is local to me, I am actually headed there later today to pick up a gun i bought online this morning.  Their online prices are much better than in store.

If i see a Socom for $999 I will be bringing it home with me.

I was told they had a dozen to sell at the $999 and one person bought several at one time and were sold out before end of the first day of the sale.  They had quite a few good deals.
