    The finest value for money AR platform on the market in SA (or anywhere) at the moment is the Troy A3 at about R21K or the significantly feature-packed A4 at about R25K.

    This is a top-tier platform at a lower mid-range price.

    Tac SHAC has stock. Phone 011 888 4037 and speak to Lynette.

    I have the A4 and totally agree with Paul. My A4 has been working flawlessly since day one.

    My friend has a Daniel Defense Tornado and he says if he knew then what he knows now he would buy the Troy.

    What is the difference between the A3 and A4 besides furniture?
