It seems a lot of people really dislike Troy Defense, I have a Troy and it works great. I am wondering why there is so much animosity towards them?

Some of it stems from an employee now at Troy being involved in the Ruby Ridge event. Do a little Googling, there's plenty of info on this.
Their hiring practices are questionable.
Hmm, I hadn't been aware of the connection between Troy employees and Ruby Ridge. I just bought a Troy sling this past week, which is now going back to the store.

Having previously served as the Tactical Commander/SWAT Senior Team Leader in the Los Angeles FBI Bureau, Dale also gleaned experience from his time in the Phoenix, Arizona and Quantico, Virginia Offices. Highlights of his tenure include his oversight of the FBI’s Crisis Response/Tactical participation in two National level WMD exercises and coordinating their associated multi-million dollar budgets, and assisting in security coordination efforts for the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympic Games. Perhaps most notably, Dale served as a Hostage Rescue Team (HRT) Tactical Operator on the nation’s only federal civilian counter-terrorism response team.
He holds degrees from both Hillsdale College and the University of Arizona as well as a certificate from the Naval Aviation Flight Training School in Pensacola, Florida. In addition, Mr. Monroe served in the United States Marine Corps where he was deployed in two Western Pacific Tours.
To contact Dale or our other world-class instructors, call 413-788-4213 or use our contact form found here.
In reality, perhaps most notably Dale Monroe was Lon Horiuchi’s partner at Ruby Ridge.

The first step is to admit your problem.Quote:
