I am pretty new to the forum and have been really enjoying the discussions on here. I wanted to get opinions on the LWRC M6A2. I have an opportunity to pick one up locally. It is about a year old and only has around 100 rounds down the pipe. Is $1600.00 to much for this. It has a bipod and and a couple magpul mags. I am a bit of a novice in the AR world so your thoughts would be appreciated.

Re: LWRC M6A2
$1600 is a steal on an M6A2 + accessories. I've got one and it hasn't failed me once. I can't find ammo that it won't shoot reliably.
It's LWRC's best selling model, and one I always recommend. Get one and you'll never look back.

Re: LWRC M6A2
Go get it today, they are practically giving it away at $1600. If you dont want it and are in Ohio let me know and I will give you a finders fee.

Re: LWRC M6A2
I'm new here too but I second what's been posted concerning the price - $1600 is one heck of a deal. The only thing that would make it sweeter is if it was for an M6 IC . . .

Re: LWRC M6A2
I paid $1200 for just my M6A2 upper. Jump on that as soon as you can. As for your question about what you're getting with the LWRC, one of the reasons they're a little pricier (aside from being very accurate and extremely high in quality) is where a lot of companies are new to the piston driven system after spending years making direct impingment, LWRC started from the beginning make the short stroke piston system and at this point have gotten the system down perfectly.

Re: LWRC M6A2
Yes, that is a huge steal! My first AR was a M6A2 and a put just under 1000 rounds through it before I sold it for $1900. I still shoot with the guy I sold it too and he thanks me every time for selling him such an awesome AR.

Re: LWRC M6A2
Not really much in mods that you need to get for one other then cosmetically. If it doesn't have magpul buttstock look at the acs and new muzzle break.

Re: LWRC M6A2
Any ammo works. I've put over 1000 rounds of Wolf, and XM193 both. Not a single problem.

Re: LWRC M6A2
Heavier ammo will be most accurate, since it's a 1:7 twist barrel - but it will shoot all of it reliably. You got a good deal. Nicely done.
My SPR loves the FGMM 77gr Sierra Matchking BTHP stuff, but I feed it a steady diet of whatever is cheap.

You talking about the 1-4? They have small objectives and are usless in the dark b/c there's no illumination. I guess it all depends what you wanna do with it. If it's just for the range, it's probably gtg for you. You get a lot more by stepping up to a vortex that would give you some illumination.
BTW, m6a2's are nice guns.

Re: LWRC M6A2
Agree with everyone above. $1600 is a good deal. I have one in 5.56 and another in 6.8. Both are great rifles and reliable too. i find the 6.8 to be extremely accurate.
