Troy Industries is making a pump action rifle to sell to some of the non-free states in the US. Other than the handguard and the pistol grip which are borrowed from the AR15, the upper, lower and bolt group only bare some casual resemblance to semi automatic rifles. This rifle is extremely light weight and it handles like a dream, compared to the tradition pump action rifle like Remginton 7600. If you so desire, you can even shoot it with the stock folded.
