    Gun broker still has 100 listed as available. These things are not exactly flying off the shelf

    $900 for one currently, it will be interesting to see how low they end up going for. I still kick myself for not picking up a 901 when they were cheap.

    Arms Unlimited website is down to 232, so they've sold 18.

    I wonder if it is a true .223 cut chamber.

    I know some Euro countries ( and South Amer. countries ) don't allow Mil. chamberings

    Interesting. On the Arms Unlimited site, clicking on any of the other Colt AR's, caliber is listed as 5.45X45 NATO (223 rem.), but on the Euro Colt, caliber is just listed as 223 Rem. If that's true, it's a no-go for me.

    CDNN is selling one on GunBroker. The barrel indicates 223Rem with a 1/7 twist.

    Arms Unlimited lowered the price to $825, so I ordered one. I'll let you know if I find anything unusual aside from the serial numbers.

    Its .223 for certain, vid below shows it conclusively.

    Shit, I bought the Colt 6.5CM for $1,400 and kick myself for not buying 10 in 6.5 and 308 for $1,400. When I bought it I was like, this is dangerous but I'll take a shot.

    I bought a 901 from Arms Unlimited. If it makes you feel any better, I had to return it for a refund. It was missing a part (like the bolt catch or something else, but I don't remember) and things in the box along with the box label didn't seem right. I called Colt and the nice lady I spoke with told me that the receiver left Cost as a part, not as a complete rifle. I called Arms Unlimited and they admitted that they had assembled the rifle from parts they got from Colt. They took it back and I bought a factory built 901 from someone else for about $100 more. Arms Unlimited does have cool Colt stuff, but I'm wary when purchasing from them.
