    Troy vs Daniel defense..

    I'm currently looking at the DD omega 12, but I am also looking at the Troy bravo 13, so far I couldn't find any threads related to the bravo rails and I was wondering if Anybody has any experience with both of them and has an opinion on one or the other, and which one would be the best buy.

    I prefer DD rails.. But you will spend about twice as much for an Omega.

    Troy makes great sights and tube rails, but I have never liked the look or feel of their picatinny-type rails.

    IMO, both names = quality. You really can't go wrong either way.

    For my current build I'm using a Troy, but that's only because the price was right and it was in stock. I was planning on a DD lite rail but it was $170 more at the time. Both felt good. The troy had LaRue index clips on it at the time too.

    What I'm getting down to is you'd be better off handling both and deciding if the DD is worth more dough.

    Troy is a more budget oriented line than Daniel Defense. You should be able to find it much cheaper if that is the route you want to go.

    DD also has the MFAR 12" rail, which is very comparable to the Troy units in terms of price and weight. If the TRX-X type Troy rails are your preference...

    I run TROY/VTAC handguards where weight and slim rails are preferred, DD Lite/OmegaX rails where I want to run handstops and mount stuff elsewhere than 12:00 [the X300 with DD Fixed front sight is what makes the TROY rails viable in my mind - still requires a DD item]

    I'm loving the various Troy Alpha rails I've been using of late. They are solid (provided you have a decent barrel nut), light weight, flexible, and very thin.
