Troy Industries complete rifle

I just got back from DSG. I went up there with a PMAG, 2nd gen I think, not sure. It was pretty stiff to get into the magazine well, and of course would not drop out when released. I did try the supplied Troy Battlemag and though it wasn't as hard to put in, it was still stiff. It would not drop either when released. Maybe over time, it would be easier? The overall fit and finish of the rifle seemed to be good. The front sight did have just a little bit of play, but barely noticeable. I think I might pick it up, because the price is hard to beat.

Also, though the stock does look bulky in the picture, it's not too bad in person. I don't like the overall shape for aesthetic reasons, but it does have a pretty good cheek weld.

I picked one up last night in Huntsville AL. $864 out the door. That store wouldn't do 10% off on firearms for signing up for a Dicks card.

P-mags are snug in the Troy lower, USGI's are fine. What is more interesting is that the Troy mag fits snug in a Double Star lower that I have. The Troy mag does seem to fit fine in my RRA. It seems to me that Troy has changed mag/magwell deminsions to try to push thier mags.

However, I think that the lower is very nicely done with no ugly mold/forge lines.

Overall, I think that fit and finish on the carbine is good. The barrel seems to be a government profile(not a medium profile). Carbine with no mag weights 6lb 14oz. The barrel measures .650 at the muzzle.

I have 2 dicks near me. Went to the closer one first Tuesday and was told I couldn't even pre-order because they were out! Had 2 in stock to sell for Black Friday so I figured that was my only chance. Had some time last night and drove to the further Dicks and was able to pick one up on the spot (which I think was a mistake on the part of the Lodge Lead Associate) but manager gave it to me anyway. Verified the Dick's CC will get me 10% off and picked up a second one on pre-order.

So all in all good find for me, able to pick one up at $755 then pre-order another at $755.

Definitely agree with this. I wound up using it on a previous build, and while its gotta be one of the more hideous stocks I've seen, the cheek weld was excellent for me and overall it was really pretty comfortable.

Agree.

I was actually kind of surprised by how much i like this stock. I am not a fan of "enhanced" cheekweld stocks but this one, despite its size, seemed less bulky than its competitors. I wonder what the width measurements are.
