    Bought 500 rounds, shot 200, every mag had at least two rounds that sounded like a squib, with very noticeable velocity/recoil differences in almost each round. Four boxes in I kept saying, ehh it was a fluke, but it kept happening, never shot the remaining 300 rounds. If they work for you, that’s great.. maybe I had a bad batch, I duno.  
     

    The remaining 300 rounds I was telling a buddy of mine about and he had the same reaction as you, told me I was out of my mind, he shot them in an old beater pistol he had and said the same thing as I did.

    Interesting.  reviews of the 9mm are pretty good and my experience is pretty good and then a guy from Hendersons (battlefield' las Vegas) stated they went through pallets of the stuff with zero issues.  I I know they had some issue with the 308 blowing up a gun but so has hornady, Federal and more.  surprised your experience was so different to be honest

    You couldn’t pay me to shoot that ammo. Inconsistent loads, every trigger pull ya prayed it wasn’t a Squib. 

    oh c'mon let's not get ridiculous.  How many issues did you have?

    I have close to 4k down the pipe with the 115gr and only 1 ftf and reinserted and went bang.  No dirtier than blazer but it does smell at times

    They emailed me yesterday, looks like deal is back, ordered again yesterday and received shipping confirmation today.  Provided copy of FID both times, apparently in this "case" persistence beats resistance.  ;)

    Thank you for your order!  Unfortunately, the warehouse that is shipping your items will not ship to New Jersey due to state restrictions. Our fulfillment team has been working diligently to locate another option at another location, but was unable to source the item. Your order has been canceled and a refund issued.

    Not that I asked for your disrespectful opinion but nowhere in my post did I mention custom. However, if you looked up the definition of custom this is a customized firearm, as in not stock. The concept of any Troy A4 barrels being tack drivers is laughable. The barrel needed to be swapped for OAL as the stock compensator is hideous and I wanted to get the blast cage/suppressor aesthetic. I’d bet money that the BA Performance Hanson is more accurate than whatever barrel you claim came with this Troy. People like to negotiate so instead of starting at the price I want the smart move is to give myself some room. I’m well aware of LMT as I’m building a CUSTOM Specwar with every bell and whistle. Your clone won’t hold a candle to it no disrespect…respectfully. We both know that the only modern rifles that don’t depreciate in value are all but unobtainable and I already have one.

    Instead of offering your unsolicited opinion how about you offer some friendly advice via message since you claim how nice and great this board is(which has been my experience until you). You don’t know how much money I’ve sunk into this rifle and it’s definitely more than what I’m asking and far more than what I'll get. LMT’s are expensive so I have to sell a rifle which I never intended on selling. “Others” seem to be in high demand at the moment. I’d be more than happy to break down prices on everything if that’ll make you happy because proving you wrong will make me happy. 
    I’ve met and done deals with a few people on this board already and they’ve been great. If you disagree with my asking price good for you. It was never gunna sell at that price anyway and walking away with less is no problem for me. I’m definitely not trying to take advantage of people and I have receipts to prove that. When you put a decent chunk of change and time into a new never fired rifle it’s going to be posted for more than the same gun with 1000 rounds through it. 

    Disagree all you want it’s your opinion. It’ll sell for $1600+ easily just watch. 
     

    oh and I don’t give a damn about your PSA other. Thing will fail after 100 rounds of the steel cased ammo you shoot.
     

     

    I didn't see anyone say anything disrespectful to you, quite the opposite imho.  You're new here, posted a GROSSLY overpriced rig and people were nice the feedback is constructive.

    Now being blunt, the BA hanson barrel sucks and you made your firearm less reliable with the lower power springs.  I don't claim anything in this regard, I just know the firearm you are trying to sell better than you apparently.  I don't think anyone would swap the sw barrel for the ba cause well, ba kinda sucks and is cheap for a reason.  I could go on regarding the ramps and all but won't

    PSA?  who said PSA?  I know I didn't as I wouldn't be caught dead with that shit in my safe.  you bring up steel case and failing, you put lower power springs in which makes shooting steel case and low power ammo like pmc even harder so you kind of just showed the hive you know even less than we assumed.  

    Now it's ok to get your panties in furl as it's clear you don't know anything about firearms other than what you read on a presser, were clearly ripped off on your rig, and haven't a clue on value adds vs devaluing your rig.  Like I said, it's ok as we all have to learn from somewhere.

    I wish you luck and post the exchange and proof of funds received as no one on this board is dumb enough to pay you 1600 for that Troy.  You will be lucky to get 1k

    Personally, I think your response make you look like a dik who is emotionally laggard but hey, you do you and all that

    Never said non negotiable ; ).. but ballpark that’s definitely less than what I put into it. I know I won’t get every penny back but with “others” under the microscope, if I didn’t have one I’d be trying to buy one. Before we get bad news and a $1500 Troy becomes worth 5k+ if it’s grandfathered. 

    no disrespect but you swapped the barrel, what else is really custom on it?  Even that devalued this as most people considered those s&w supplied barrels tack drivers and BA isn't Krieger.  swapping muzzle devices isn't custom, nor reduced power springs (which I'd hate as nato primers can be hard).  I don't see anything there really and you are 1000 over the mkt on these.   I find it impossible to believe you put that much into this that you'd lose on 2k.  You have to justify the price, not 'if' and the word 'grandfather' doesn't apply in New Jermany.  respectfully  :)    That Troy (I'd not own if you gave to me due to their past) should be priced in the 1100 area at most.  

    This is a great board, loads of firearm knowledge and know how and it's across the breadth of all firearms.  I mean that, I search here if I have a question first as it's been answered.  Buying and selling is another matter given the size of the board, amount of traffic, general expense of nj etc etc..

    For instance, I've nustled the idea of selling my unfired LMT Estonian Rahe and giving the board first licks which I always do and wind up selling elsewhere as this board is very price sensitive (all compliance work done and with correct holosun 515 for clone correctness) and this board is going to balk at 3k, which is BELOW where it will sell elsewhere.  Remember this here as you are new; price matters most on this board as the 80/20 bell curve applies here

    you are better off selling that on another board but caution, we're 'nice' here and won't jump on you.
