Troy Pump Action Rifles

54rndball · Nov 27, 2015

I just saw an ad for this in Guns & Ammo. This is a AR type rifle, but pump action instead of semi-auto! The ad bills it as legal in all 50 states, which must mean MD too. Take a look at the website which has a Nutnfancy review of the gun. I know, the guy is hard to take, but this looks like a very accurate rifle. It comes in 5.56, also .308, 7mm-08, .243 Win. and .300 Blackout. Looks interesting, no?

It's also an answer where hunting with semi autos is not allowed.

The .308 would be great for that

I'd buy one in 9mm.

I got a Remington 760 in 30-06 for PA hunting, they sell for $500 so what's special about these $1,000 guns other than they come in smaller cals and the cute factor??

Sort of reminds me of the pump action AKs from a few years ago.

Give them an A for ingenuity but if I'm carrying a pump I would be happier with a Remington.

Looks like a great idea up to the point where you can't put their upper on your standard AR15 lower.

That would have made more sense. And I see no real reason why it could not be done. The entire pump action mechanism should fit into an upper which fits on any AR15 lower.

A 300 BO/Whisper would be great in such a configuration.

with a .566, would you still need it to be an hbar?

No. It's not an AR and it's not a semiauto centerfire.

we are talking MSP here. it looks like an EBR.
that being said, i think the .308 would be more enticing for me. :thumbsup:

I agree with both of your points. :thumbsup:

Cannot agree more. A pump upper that fits most any AR-15 lower would have 10x the appeal. It's as if Troy went 90% of the way then stopped. Big waste of R&D money.

If it fit an AR lower, then it wouldn't be a step toward completely banning semi-auto rifles, now would it?

No... There is no law waiting in the wings to ban the semi auto if a pump action were produced. The idea would be completely ridiculous since there are already semi auto and pump action rifles and shotguns of the same type.

I don't see any cry to ban the Remington 11-87 because they make and sell the 870. :shrug:

Price of magazines and availability of magazines.

Ares SCR can use any upper and is MD legal - but you lose the pistol grip
