Dang I missed out. I had to leave that thread when it started becoming a shit show. I do still like and will continue to purchase Geissele products. MK1s, ALG V3s, and MRP are all I own.
I have been throwing out the MRP name whenever I get the opportunity.

Well I guess I was wrong but I figured the MLOK upper would have came with at least 1-3 Pic segments for mounting.... I think I truly only need one segment to mount my bipod. Curious though beings I know nothing about the MLOK market, what is everyone using to mount their bipods? Just a PIC segment? If so curious what you're using as I see LMT doesn't sell them unless I'm missing something.... OR. Are you using some sort of direct mount? Thanks.
Edit. Anyone have any experience with the Kinect Mounts... Look SVELT in ideology... Just curious about robustness as far as certain applications, LIKE mounting a bipod... |

Geissele makes great stuff no doubt about it, that being said no one beats the MRP platform. That doesn't mean I don't enjoy building other manufacturers uppers, although if I were going into harms way or could only have one it'd be an MRP

Until I get my MLR chassis, I reporting the next person/s who post an awesome MLR build....
Nothing brings the inner child out in me like waiting for a new MRP top 
I ordered at 12:04, so I'm putting this on my USPS, or UPS. |

Now that I own the MLR upper, I need the MLC upper as well. I'll be patient and wait for LMT to do another sale. Hopefully Black Friday/Christmas of this year if not sooner. I'd definitely get one for $400-450 if they did similar deal as the MLR.

I just ordered a PST 1-6 MRAD that is going to make it onto my MARS/MRP Rifle. Presently wearing a PST 1-4 I've had for several years.
When I was ordering some things from LMT earlier last year, I asked them if I could get a tour of their new facilities when we were driving through. They said they wouldn't be finished in time (October) because winter lasted entirely too long and caused construction delays. It was cool to see it at least. Glad Karl made way to ex-fil into a better state than IL. Now I want an Iowa marked lower.... |

Evening fellas, new MRP owner here. Couple questions:
1) Sold my HSP SBR scout mount because it didn’t play nice with the LMT folding front sight on my picatinny CQB, any suggestions on a replacement offset scout mount that gives enough room to easily depress the release button on LMT front sight? 2) have a CQB 10.5” and a rifle 16” ... yesterday I tried removing the 16” barrel (brand new upper) and it did not want to come out. I have a magpul bev block, should I place it in vise and pull as hard as I can or am I missing something? Followed directions and removed the two bolts, just afraid of scratching up inside of brand new Mlok chassis when it finally gives and I’m thrown backwards... |

I've done this several times on different barrels and chassis. It's not normal unless it's a new rifle or a very dirty rifle that has sat for a long time in my experience. Once you get it free, I bet it doesn't repeat that again. |

Got my MLR today. Shipping slip says it left LMT on the 31st so USPS was a little slow with their "2 day priority mail."
I'm kind of surprised at how narrow it is. I know someone posted measurements but I was anticipating it being about the size of the ALG rails. I used to think the ALGs were too thin but have grown to like them. Hopefully the MLR will be the same. Will try and post some pics tomorrow with some sun. |

After shooting lots with my MWS at 1k w/ 16", and seeing it's ridiculous rainbow trajectory in trace and on cam, I can't imagine what a 13.5" MWS's trajectory looks like at 1100yd
FWIW, 1211yds was my absolute limit with my MWS 16". 1/20rds on a 2/3rd torso steel. I danced a box of 178gr. AMAXs in a circle around the steel. One shot would be 2ft left, next would be 8" low, etc. |
