308 bcg shows $420 for me, while logged in.
The only thing you've settled is you apparently get special pricing from LMT or you have a bone to pick with V1.
not at all, I merely replied and then was engaged. If you think that is a bone to pick based on my responding then I'd suggest you find a safe space. lol
I get no special pricing from LMT but have ordered from them in the past
sounds good, I'll post the email correspondence with pricing from August but doubt v1 would want that as it's worse
It appears you actually do get special pricing. Interesting.
BTW V1 tactical is an authorized LMT dealer-it means they're on the same team. You seem to be under the impression that they're competitors or something else unsavory. Kind of strange.
I bought one of the 22” 6.5 creed barrels on the Black Friday deal from LMT. $455 and free shipping? Couldn’t say no.
LMT usually has a Christmas sale where they have something priced really low for 1 day, the next day the next item. The best items are closer to the 25th and they usually start out with MBUIS or the cheap LMT range bag and end it with barrels and uppers.
I went to the LMT site a few times and left in disappointment. When I finally saw a 6.5 creed barrel, I bought it within seconds.
Sir, that is a Dealer price you are displaying. NOT a customer price. If you are a customer, your account setting on the LMT side is incorrect. If you are a dealer, I don't think posting Dealer pricing is the best thing to do.
Not dealer pricing. Hey just trying to help. Carry on, im more discerning
The only way it all makes sense to my small limited brain-is if you are actually Karl Lewis himself
Welcome to the Hide Sir and keep up the good work Sir!
Has anybody seen the Iowa roll mark yet? Just curious-I have not but then again I don't see too many LMTs that aren't mine.

Yes, that's the same price (same entire screen) shown in the dealer portal I have access to. So if not "dealer" pricing, then LMT is giving you the equivalent for another reason (LEO, Mil, etc.).
ETA: I looked back at the all of the screenshots you posted. They are all dealer cost. So yeah, probably special pricing for some reason.

I have 2 mars-l lowers with the ia mark that I bought in the past 2-3 months. Also a complete Mars mlr rifle and another Mars h lower but those were IL.
I'm thinking like @RyanScott does anyone have any experience with a 16" 6.5 creed on the mws? Would it work to chop one of the factory 20" barrels? What would be the ideal gas length if going the custom route?

Took mine out today and zeroed the mk6. I ran almost out of elevation adjustment, only have 5 mils left. Interesting. Can’t get the zero stop set, either. It’ll have to do until after deer season. Group was shot in 30mph gusting winds, and rather hurried due to incoming inclement weather. 168gr magtech ammo.
Or,
The Burris XTR signature rings can give you 40 MOA and you won’t run out of elevation out to 1K yards.

That, and I think I will send the optic back to leupold to have the turret swapped.
Decided to use the LMT for last week of deer season here b/c it’s more fun to hunt with from a stand or walking. Keeping my bolt guns reserved for elk.
Checked zero at 100 yards with FGMM 168 and 10 power scope. Have a NF 2.5-10x24 on it.
4 shots from my 16 inch CL barrel. These bastards shoot more than good. Not too bad considering it’s only a 10 power scope.

Primary Arms has a 12% off sale today-and they have an L129a1 Sharpshooter already priced at $2899 which is super low and the 12% off coupon works it down to $2550 which is an amazing price. I have one and love it-heavy pig no doubt but a more indestructible moa shooting battle proven rifle you will not find.
They also have a couple of MARS-L lowers for $699 +12% off. Really good deals on LMT stuff.

anybody swap out stocks and go to the Magpul PRS? If so any pics and what parts did you swap to for the buffer assembly?
Thank you!
Thank you!
I did. I think I ordered a heavy buffer from Slash’s heavy buffers. Can’t remember the spring I went with.
edit: I found the email from the guy at heavy buffers. He recommended:
“AR10R-XH buffer (10 oz) and a .308 rifle buffer spring (#EA1095).
More info here:”

That was what I got and it all works perfectly now.

Looks like I could have saved over $200.00 with V1 Tactical’s Annual Mega Sale. I purchased a MLKMWS upper, 20” 6.5 Creedmoor SS barrel and a SA 308 BCG from other LMT dealers. I was able to get 10% off via military discounts or sale pricing, which is comparable to V1 Tactical’s regular prices.
Thanks for the tip. I will purchase from V1 Tactical in the future.
I thought the Magpul PRS GEN3 Precision-Adjustable Stock would mount to any mil-spec carbine receiver extension tube without changing the buffer and spring.
I would be interested to hear how it shoots. I wonder why LMT does not offer this length as a regular stocked item. I see they discontinued the 24" length.

it does. I just installed one last night on the mws it’s perfect!
Recent range trip with now discontinued 24" 6.5cm barrel-
This is about as good as I can shoot-a better trigger puller would likely be able to get more out of this rig

The best group I’ve gotten so far from my 22 inch 6.5 CM barrel (from Black Friday) was 0.74 MOA. Significantly better than my chrome lined .308 barrel!
I picked up one of those also. I too have not gotten anything to brag about with my 308 cl barrel. Not much time on it and I only have a 5x prism optic on it etc.
I wish I had bought one
My 20" ss is a little under 3/4 moa but it'll get better
I picked up some ASC mags. Took one of the 20 rounders out of the package. Won't lock in, drags in the magwell. When I can get it locked in, it drags on the bolt carrier.
A ten round version does it too, just a bit less.
So I guess we'll see how they handle this on a CS level. Sent them an e-mail for starters.

That reminds me, I bought five magazines during the Black Friday sale and they don't work at all. Double feeding, won't drop free. Haven't emailed yet but I should.
edit: these were "D&H TACTICAL 20RD .308"
Crap, I just ordered those yesterday. I thought if I got them direct from LMT, surely they would work.
Good to know. So far I've successfully used Magpul 10s, 20s and 25s, Lancer 10s and 20s, Larue, Hexmag 20s, and Brownells brand.
I’ve been following this thread and ordering parts slowly. My MWS is getting closer to completion.
MWS Mlok Upper
Magpus Offset Sights
16” SS LW 308
Area 419 Muzzle Adapter ( 2P Hellfire not shown)
SAS Arbitier (A419 mount)
I’ll be adding A Geissele HiSpeed NM Trigger, charging handle and optics next. Should be all set by the end of the week.

My 16” SS MWS .308 that I picked up off another Hide member. It loves 168 FGMM. It is pretty easy to get sub MOA 5-shot groups out of it. Here are three consecutive 5-shot groups at 100 yards, the smallest measuring .562”, largest around .75” I just had another group this weekend after I was done doing some barricade training that measured .326” for 5 shots. Love this rifle!
Same experience here several months back. Sent them back and got a refund in a couple of weeks.
I finally got this to the range and zeroed with some Federal GMM 175. This barrel looks like it’s going to be a good one! This is rounds 5-10 down the pipe.
Just pulled the carbine stock off and slid the PRS on. Nothing else was needed.
