No, and while we're at it, I still won't buy or recommend Leatherman multi-tools either. Fuck those ATF boot lickers. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile Agreed. Crap I love my multi tool what dad they do? Do I have to melt it down and seen it back or just not buy any more? At an ATF event several years ago Leatherman gave away multi tools with Always Think Forfeiture on the side.

Actually my most recent build I avoided Troy.
But, I haven't thrown anything away either. So since this happened they lost 3 sights or $300+. I guess that's measurable. |

The only Troy product that's ever interested me is their M14/M1A chassis, but seeing as how I've decided to get an LMT MWS308 instead of an LRB M14S I won't be buying anything from Troy. Fuck them and fuck the mother killing and anti-gun cock sucking jack-booted thugs they are hiring. They won't see cent one from this man.

I suppose it could be something like a nonliving version of Alexandre Dumas' The Corsican Brothers. You're not advocating integrity. You're advocating stupidity and attacking a straw man. |

I have a Troy FDE rail on a carbine. I bought the rail used on the EE a year or so before the dumbasses at Troy decided to hire that shithead that defended the murderer of Vicki Weaver.
I have no plans to get rid of the rail but also have no plans to ever buy a Troy product again, either used or new. |
