Robocop1051 Posted September 25, 2011 Report Posted September 25, 2011 Who's used them? Who owns them? Who likes them? Who hates them?Worth it? Or buy the full size?
imschur Posted September 25, 2011 Report Posted September 25, 2011 Since you called it, if nobody here has them you have to be first <laughs> <munch>
Robocop1051 Posted September 25, 2011 Author Report Posted September 25, 2011 I had a feeling that was going to happen <thumbsup>
alelks Posted September 26, 2011 Report Posted September 26, 2011 HaHa! Looks like you have to take one for the team. <thumbsup>
Robocop1051 Posted September 27, 2011 Author Report Posted September 27, 2011 I pulled the trigger this morning... I bought the Troy Micro set with Tritium inserts. I'll let you all know when they come in.Only $198.50 shipped, not a bad deal
imschur Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 It's truly a sign of how bad we have the sickness when we think $200 for sights isnt bad <lmao> I agree BTW <laughs>
edgecrusher Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 i like the bigger ones i bought for my pws, can't wait to see them, and perhaps their new home too.
H2O MAN Posted October 7, 2011 Report Posted October 7, 2011 I have a set of micros on my Leupold MK4 Rogue and they work just fine.I would need the taller ones if I wanted to co-witness with a red dot.
Robocop1051 Posted November 4, 2011 Author Report Posted November 4, 2011 So I finally mounted my BUIS. My build was to make a rifle as compact as possible without crossing into the SBR realm. Those pictures will come eventually...I actually really like these sights, but I've been spoiled by my Magpul MBUS. I like how low they are. I like how quick the DOA lines up. I don't like how difficult they are to deploy. The MBUS is a quick snap then just push them back into place. The Troy sights are tough to lift into place then you have to depress a lock to put them back. I hear guys say that they will trust their lives on Troy BUIS sights before they will on the plastic MBUS... I can't fault the Magpul design. For the money spent, I think the Magpul is a perfect sight. Add the Trijicon tritium front sight post and you have something comparable to the Troy tritium for much less.I'm not dissatisfied with the Troy BUIS, but I'm not overwhelmingly satisfied to the point that I think I'll replace my GenII MBUS set.
planeflyer21 Posted November 15, 2011 Report Posted November 15, 2011 I haven't looked at those in person. Is there tritium in the front and rear sights? Just the front?Concerning the metal versus plastic, people said the same thing about Ruger's new 10/22 trigger group. Somewhere there is a video of a person jumping up and down on the plastic tg...still have yet to find the video of the metal one being jumped on.Our Marlin 795 has a plastic hammer but it goes bang every time.Heck, in Russia they don't know what to do with all the plastic car bodies that they made from the 1950s on. The engines and chassis are no good but the plastic bodies are still there.Jon
Robocop1051 Posted November 15, 2011 Author Report Posted November 15, 2011 Troy puts one tritium capsule in the front and two in the rear.
calegalish Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 I pulled the trigger this morning... I bought the Troy Micro set with Tritium inserts. I'll let you all know when they come in.Only $198.50 shipped, not a bad dealWhere did you pick them up for that price?
Robocop1051 Posted January 2, 2012 Author Report Posted January 2, 2012 Wow, I don't even remember. One really nice thing was the customer service from Troy. The only tritium set available was the HK style. After they came in the mail I sent them to Troy, who graciously swapped the set for the Di-Optic set.
