    18" 6 ARC vs. 18" 223

    I have not replaced my LMT 18" barrel with the Proof 5.56 barrel yet. Waiting until coyote season is over to make the change. I have the Dead Air Nomad-30 on the rifle now and will use it with the Proof barrel when installed. The LMT MRP-H with Proof 22" 6.5CM barrel has a Dead Air Nomad-LT...

    18" 6 ARC vs. 18" 223

    I considered it recently for a nighttime coyote gun as well. Mine is a LMT MRP as welI. I will use a PVS-24 clip-on with a 3-12x56 or Reap-IR thermal for optics and most of my shots will not exceed 300 yards on the east coast. I decided to stay with 5.56 as it does very well within that range...

    Scammers are ACTIVELY scanning classifieds for an I'll take it

    I posted an I'll take it for a Leica 2700b rangefinder posted by TxDerek. https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/leica-2700-b-lrf-fs.7202201/ Minutes after posting I'll take it, I receive a PM stating, "It's yours. What is your shipping address, send payment via F&F to gmail account, and...

    AR10 Accuracy ?

    Shooting gas guns consistently is the challenge. Much easier to regularly shoot small groups with a bolt gun. Gas guns, especially AR10s that have more reciprocating mass, require a firmer hold and attention to technique IMO. That is part of the challenge and fun of shooting semiautos!

    Why are quadrails making a comeback?

    I prefer monolithic LMT quad rails on my night guns. Don’t have to worry about pic rail coming loose and has a bit more weight/rigidity for laser mount.

    General Purpose Battle Rifle: KAC SR-25 14.5" ACC vs 16" APC

    I was shooting my 300 BLK AR15 and my 308 Win Ar10 yesterday. In weight, recoil, and size of components it is a comical difference. Sure, you can run and gun with an AR10. But for me, the AR15 is a much better fit for run and gun. The AR10 is a natural for a DMR role. And out to 600 yards, I...

    What the fuck, LMT?

    Shot my new 20” SS barrel today for the first time. Just ballparked a load with Varget and 178 BTHP and was grouping about 0.9moa at 100 yards.

    What the fuck, LMT?

    A well machined upper and lower that shoots well and provides this owner a high degree of satisfaction. I wanted to provide some evidence that LMT still ships out some quality uppers, lowers, and sights. Especially for the Black Friday special of $599 that I paid for the upper and backup...

    What the fuck, LMT?

    I would say perfect cosmetic details are not a priority for LMT. If you want a show quality piece, look elsewhere. In my experience LMTs excel at a few things: reliability, one of the best platforms for mounting NV lasers and clip-on NV (no worry about the hand guard flexing when on a...

    What the fuck, LMT?

    Looks good to me but maybe my eye is less critical. I certainly don't see as well up close these days!😁

    What the fuck, LMT?

    A barrel extension that is loose is not cool. In my experience LMT stuff has just gotten more polished and refined through the years. My very early version MRP has a pretty ugly 16 inch 5.56 chrome lined barrel. I love the thing though because it shoots crazy good for a chrome lined barrel...

    What the fuck, LMT?

    I got a free set of backup sights with a MRP-L upper recently. I thought both the sights and the upper were really nice. I got a MARS-L lower and put the parts kit in it this weekend. Again, it seemed perfect to me. The fitment between upper and lower is probably the best out of all my ARs. I...

    LMT feed issues

    I have a few MRPs, going back to around 2008ish for the first, and bought another as recent as last week. I have not had any problems other than a DMR stock with rough finishing recently. Mine have just flat out worked. I hope yours gets sorted soon.

    LMT feed issues

    They are definitely catching on that lip, bummer. Looks like you need to crimp as well! That is some serious setback.
