If Larue starts making plastic mags I sure as hell hope they are better than the cheesy gun cases and chamber flags they are shipping their guns with.dam good thing they make a great rifle.

Let me totally hijack this thread to talk about another freebie you get from LT.
During the panic I came across a 7.62 by another “top of the line company” that uses a piston upper at below MSRP and I had no idea at the time if I would ever see an LT so I grabbed it. Stuck it in the safe as an “insurance” gun. Anyway, it’s sat in the safe sense. Figured I’d take it to the gunshow tomorrow and trade it for a brick of .22 so I pull it out and go to clear it. Seized tight, really odd. Try again. Doesn’t budge. Take off the upper and crap and crud falls out of everything corroded all over the place. WTF? Finally get the bolt loose and I can instantly see they test shot it with some kind of crappy ammo that has corroded over everything by the patterns of corrosion all along the front half of the bolt carrier, the breech, chamber, and first third of the barrel. Of course the outside is nicely lubed and looks great. So much for the NIB gun I was going to try to sell. About ready to throw the piece of SH&$ in the garbage now I guess.
As luck would have it I have a 7.62 tOBR I got about 10 months ago still in the roll I’m holding for my son’s 15th or 16th birthday. So my first thought was “Fudge, I hope that is okay” so unroll it and begin the inspection. That sucker is spotless, can’t even tell it’s been test fired but it has a test target and I have full confidence it is associated with my rifle.
So if you don’t like the SWAG fine but compare them other high end companies, ohh wait there isn’t a comparison.
Whew I feel better…still (&$*%_)(@$_*(&'ed off but better.
