Tim from Military Arms Channel put out a video awhile back comparing the retro rifles put out by Brownells and Troy Industries. Both retro versions are a good buy. In the second video with Karl and Ian of InRange, they briefly discusses the Colt retro AR and price point with a Colt rep at the 2017 Shot Show. Limited production run was the excuse by Colt. :rolleyes:

      Yesterday I visited a local store that has been around for a long time, They had nothing in stock. needless to say I asked about getting a TROY other and the owner was very uptight about it. he said I'll never sell one due to the fact that there is a federal law in the works to stop the sale and any prior sales will be confiscated! I was not happy to hear this but this store has a very bad rep. So a little help here, I looked and saw nothing about this subject on line.

      NO, you can't have one. Too heavy and has handguard.
      - Fightlite SCR Lower and Bolt
      - KAK 4.5" Barrel w/Adj Gas Block and Griffin Armament Linear Device
      - Ambi-Charging Handle
      - CZ Low Profile Sights
      Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet. Will add a handstop.
