I know there has been some confusion as to the changes occurring at T1C. This video should clear things up for you guys.
Everything firearms related is being sold off at really deep discounts so check out the website at tier1citizen.com

Is there still an 11.3 upper in store!?!?
Well, you’ve got to do what’s best for your business and your family
Always sell on value not price. If they don’t get it then “Next” Stay strong brother.
Make a video about operating a mini Draco in a vehicle pros and cons.
Always wanted to buy your t1c komp, but they were never sold separately. Got any extras since you're getting out of that area?
I used to build and buy whole rifles now I just build good uppers like bcm's
I hope you will still offer the blast device you designed for super affordable price of $50 I think it was. I plan to pick up a couple. Thanks for videos!
"…..I am AR15s."
Good Ole Colt Defense Filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy. Adams Arms is another one.
So if you want a real authentic Colt LE69 Series With LE Prefix and Colt Defense Marking . Now would be the time .
This week, I completed a 300 AAC build for myself. I always enjoy building my own AR's so that I can pick out the best (for my specific purposes) components. Yesterday, I was talking with a friend that's a dealer, and I said "I'm done building AR's until the prices go back up. I can buy one much cheaper than I can build one." He agreed. So, I know exactly where you're coming from, and I don't blame you one bit. But on the selfish side, I'd love to see you continue with AR videos.
That's a shame, but I get it. Will you still be selling accessories and parts through your store?
Abner I'm a CPA in the south, and would happily provide you competent tax advice. 🙂
I do not think it is a good decision. Income diversification is key in business. If the problem is customer management or direct marketing, I'd suggest to work with retailers instead, or to put an e-commerce platform in the middle. You know your product, do not disregard all this valuable knowledge.
Sorry to hear about this, but you have to do what is right for you. I still hope you will consider offering rifle/pistol combination training as I hope to be able to attend
Good decision! People want it all for nothing. You'll be better off and in the black. All the best with the transition.
On a tight budget right now, is there a budget AR you would suggest or would you wait and buy later? I do not own a rifle right now.
Fully understand. But, if someone wants a Springfield Saint or Tread let them go get them. I will not personally support Springfield by purchasing their products. There are AR's and then there are AR's. I finally built my own AR pistol and even with savings of 25% on the big parts, I was still in for $1200.00. Better or nicer cost more than your off the shelf manufactured gun. I have marveled at what you have sold your AR's for realizing what quality cost and what I have spent to build similar. I appreciate your videos, knowledge/perspective, and your ministry. God bless you and your family brother.
I remember, before I purchased my MK18 from you, you was telling me all the reasons why your MK18 build was better than Daniel Defense MK18. When I took it to the range, other guys shooting Daniel Defense rifles/MK18's said you are absolutely correct after I let them sh💥💥t my MK18 built by you. Thanks again and hope to train with you some day❗May God bless and protect you and your family‼
You are in a saturated market right now for AR15s with custom work. I like that you are focusing on training classes and hope to take your T1C shoot n scoot this fall. I first have to get a permission slip to transport my SBR glock from Georgia to Tennessee.
Race to the bottom, feverish capitalism has created some very shitty consumers. One of the largest distributors in the industry went out of business recently because they bet on Hillary winning in 2016 and took on inventory that turned into debt because of it. As for rifles, things cost what they cost. Cheap, Quality, Long-Lasting. Pick two.
Good choice. Will you have loan guns ? For us foreigners.
I used to build race cars and street rods. I closed up my shop for the same reasons. Customers would always say that such and such backyard shop will do it for less. I ended up working 12 hour days and a couple nights a week i would stay at the shop just so i could stay at the poverty level. I closed up shop and got a job and have zero stress and lots of money. When you own a business it zero money and lots of stress.
Training is always going to be the way to go. Once a customer has bought their rifle, there is a good probability you won't see them again, whereas training is something that is tangible, quantifiable and most importantly, degradable. Training is something people will come back to do, over and over. I think it's a smart choice.
Might be a good decision. If the people want to buy crappy ARs they should. Maybe sometime they will realize they have to buy an other one….
Keep on.
Greetings from Germany
Well brother, I pray whatever you do our Heavenly Father bless you and pour our pressed together and running over financial blessings on you and yours in Jesus name amen!
Much love,
Rick
I have food stains on my seatbelts too 😔😌😏😂 but seriously I get it. You gotta do what you gotta do brother! Appreciate the cool vids and knowledgeable content!
So you won't be doing rifle training? Your final statement was confusing…….
order in… just a few bucks,
but hope it helps. 👍
hey Abner, Thanks for the turn-key FDE Rainstick !!! sexy. glad i got'er before u turnt-out the game. ve con Dios
Now I kinda wish I bought one of your uppers
While it might suck for you, this is great for us! I’ve committed to taking training at least one class from every name you can think of for handgun training. And Tier 1 Citizen is def on my list! Can wait for more handgun dates!
Local gun show had literally a thousand AR15s for sale, some under $400… peak market saturation
As a former sole proprietor, but especially a consumer, I understand completely. I hope you will still do AR related videos. They are of great value.
Build now, sell later in the pres. cycle?
