While certainly possible, never underestimate the power of a DSG employee with too much time on their hands....

What up PalmettoPrecision.. haven't seen you out at the SW in awhile so hope all is well. As for the Troy rifles, Troy makes great stuff but I would like to know the exact specs on them and allow someone else to run them hard and document it before I pick on up.
Anybody else pick one of these up? I'm really considering getting one but I'd love to hear some more reviews.
The Dicks (Utah) here does not carry them...:( If they did I would of probably bought one.
Does Utah have some sort of AWB in place?
Aside from the pic posted earlier in this thread in regards to the loose castle nut, I have not heard a bad thing about them. It's a great deal since you get about $500 worth of accessories on it, so that's essentially paying $500 for a quality mil-spec carbine. The only thing that's not following mil-spec would be the barrel and that's because it's a melonited barrel, rather than a CHF or whatever the case may be. I'd be fine with either kind of barrel, personally.
I'd definitely recommend checking it out. Even if you did not like it for whatever reason, you could part it out and actually make a profit on it. If you're still thinking about it then I would hurry and bite because they seem to be getting few and far between.
They have a large special order book and either in the back or next to it, there should be a '2012-2013 Hunting Guide'. It's a spiral-bound glossy notebook full of hunting stuff, but strangely enough - I think on pages 30-34, there's a full line of EBR's and shotguns...Like I mentioned earlier, I didn't get the chance to really put this rifle through it's paces, but from what I did get to see and do, it seems like a super-nice rifle for an excellent price...
By the way when u buy one you get a certificate, color catalog, color manual, and a warranty card that u fill out and send with a photcopy of your receipt. Troy will send you a tshirt and a door for the cqb pistol grip.
Just realized I said that this was in Traverse City, MI. It was not, it was Grand Rapids, MI at the Rivertown Mall. If anyone ever gets a chance, see if it is fixed. Or it could be that they sold that one and got another one in. I doubt they will do anything about it anyway.
The Dick's in Hoover, AL had 7 of them on the wall Saturday when I was in there.
Here's the book - page 33:
