Saw and handled one a TacShoot: drew LOTS of attention
at the 999 price, then. The fore-end on these is just the opposite of the accessory=draped 'hedgehogs' that are so beloved by tacti-coolers. You can hand what you want, but the Troy FE handle really well -- rifle like, if you will.The popper sights are good quality and not cheap. The butt-stock looks luggy, but holds a lot gear, and feels fine to the cheek spot weld. As noted above, there a few hunnert+ bucks of good quality stuff hanging on the gun, as purchased
Unless there are unknown to me 'component' reasons for not buying one at that new price, I was overall impressed with gun. It was in the hands of an experienced AR tac-match shooter and got passed around after the match with positive comments: fore-end and sights being noted expecially .
I'm already midway thru a build with finished lower and shorty BCM upper being gathered, so can't grab it now. Otherwise, given what I see, and nothing to the contrary yet, one would be coming home, to go with the Rock River Coyote. 'Near and far', as I think of the pair.
Happy buying, for those who do it, I trust.
