I am looking at these two company's products for a foregrip. I haven't decided whether to go for the freefloat or not yet but I like the reputations of both of them. Three questions: Which do you guys like? Should I go with their FF versions? How difficult for a novice is a two piece free float to install? Thanks |

Owner of 4 troys - zero problems with any of them. I wouldn't buy any other system at this point. Get the free-float and follow the tutorial stickied in the AR build it yourself forum. If you have a dremel with a cutting wheel it is a piece of cake to install - 15 min or less for your first, 5 minutes for the second and so on... |

I use Troy MRF-RX rails on two of my weapons. I've been very happy with fit, finish, and performance. Easy to install, assuming you can get the delta ring off. A dremel tool works well for that. 10-15 min and you're good to go. I've heard that the MI rails are very good, with a bit less solid a lockup system to the barrel nut (I haven't played with them so I don't know exactly). |
+1 for MI service. I had trouble with one of their gas blocks (it had an incorrect inner diameter and I couldn't get it onto my barrel), and not only did they ream it out to proper dimensions, but they sent a second one back with it as well. |
| I have used and installed both of them. They both install easily and I haven't had any problems with either of them, both solid. Personally, I like the troy a bit better as they are slimmer. Of course, MI gets a bumb for price....can't really gp wrong with either. Best bet is to try and shoot both. |
