I took my MRP out shooting last weekend and it performed perfectly. This carbine is currently my favorite AR15. I like the MRP so much, I almost want to sell off all off my Geissele stuff and replace it with MRP uppers. With suppressor, no crazy gas to the face, and ejection was consistent at 3 o'clock.
I have a Colt 6933 and a Noveske 11.5. Both are great SBRs, but I just like this LMT so much better. The monolithic upper is just the best. LMT Enhanced Bolt and Carrier Geissele S3G Trigger, Super 42 H2 Buffer, Bolt Catch Q Cherry Bomb and Saker Plan B

I've long lusted after your green machine. IIrc, I've seen full shots of it over on TOS. The LW MLOK 14.5" MWS has the potential to be one of nicest MWSs I've ever seen or read about. Keep up the great work. You can't rush perfection

Only thing I'd change is I would KAC stipple those rail covers. If your interested shoot me a PM, and I'll do them for free for a fellow MRP user, or I can point you to place that will show you how to do it yourself. |

Wow great looking set! I have an idea let's see who is on board. What if we all submit 1 rifle, 1 time and we all vote for who has the coolest MRP in the thread? We can set a date that submissions have to be turned by, and when you submit your official entry we label it as such, - RIFLE EXAMPLE PIC THIS IS MY OFFICIAL ENTRY. When the date comes we can all vote and then crown the winner. Maybe everyone pitches in 5 bucks in order to compete and the winner receives the pot. Someone we designate will hold the cash until the winner is declared. For instance the fellow MRP member we designate, we can all PayPal or venmo him our 5 dollar entry fee so that person holds the cash. We could earmark a solid week coming up that the entry's will be submitted during, then after that week came and ended we will all have the next week to vote on here as such- MY OFFICAL VOTE GOES TO XXX We will count all votes submitted during the week we label as the voting looking over the posts to make sure they fall within the specified dates and are legal votes. What do you guys think? If we like the idea we can set forth some ground rules such as the picture submission can only be of the rifle no background peripherals such as NODs, etc (to prevent the coolest pic from winning and focus the attention on the actual rifle itself) and whatever other criteria everyone thinks is fair and relevant. So what's everyone say? Stuck in the middle east so I would have to role with what's on my phone but who cares. Would give a lot of good design ideas to new comers. |

Love how you got the MRP setup, and I bet that makes one very versatile rifle. Congrats, and look forward to hearing your thoughts on the MRP

ETA: How do you like the LMT ambi CH? Can you compare it to any other ambi CHs you might have had in the past?Thank you! I'm honored to be included. I'll be sure to update thoughts as I go As far as the LMT ambi handle, it feels pretty standard. The left side feels slightly smoother than the right under scrutiny. I did not notice this on the Radian or BCM, but it's been awhile since I owned either of those and I was just thrilled to have ambi handles then. I believe the slight grit I feel on the right side would be unnoticed under actual use. I can tell you, however, that the LWRC sitting next to has a better charging handle. The pins that secure the latches are huge, and both sides operate equally smooth with no grit throughout the pull. So I do prefer the LWRC handle, but as I said, under actual use I'd be hard pressed to notice I imagine. The LMT handle does what it's designed to do and although I've read reports from others over the years, I've never broken a charging handle latch and don't expect the LMT to be the one to fail. But the Radian and LWRC were the smoothest, in my unprofessional opinion. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By LMT_87: Very nice! How are you liking the Steiner P4xi? I haven't had the opportunity to shoot through it yet, just got the mount in after work today. Looking through it, I love it, especially for the price. I'm always skeptical of "daylight bright!!!" advertisements, as I typically find they end up being "daylight dim"  But the P4xi is truly daylight bright. We had a foot of snow and high sun the other day, and I had no problem seeing the aiming dot as bright as my aimpoint CompC3. No joke. I love that. The glass is better than I would expect for the price tag. The edge to edge clarity is again better than I would expect for the price. My only real complaint is the illumination dial spins a little more freely than I'd like without super positive detents. I feel it could get bumped while slung since it will lay toward my body. I admittedly don't do much low light shooting, so having the etched reticle will suffice if it is bumped. At 17oz I feel it is an appropriate weight, 21oz is where I've been afraid to venture beyond in the past lol. The rifle is heavy with the optic and flashlight mounted up, but I like the way it's set up. So far as I don't run into frequent unintentional illumination changes and the optic retains zero, I'll chalk it up as a fantastic deal that I would recommend to anyone.

Most excellent feedback on the CHs Hox. Really appreciate the detailed reply.
Outside of trying to keep everything LMT as possible, I think the Geissele ACH is most likely what I should get. LMT will still get more money from me on this build anyways, but they E carriers are OOS. |

Getting close, and have pretty much decided on the last remaining parts, just have to find them. Last items I need to buy are a T-1/2 w/ 2moa dot, Scalarworks Gen 3 mount, LMT E carrier, and lastly ACH CH. Got the MD, Sights, Arisaka mount in this last week.
WL setup should be complete by Monday when the M600u gets here. It's mounted via the Arisaka, and will be activated via a SR-07 tape switch. |

Hey fellas! New to the thread. It's nice knowing there's 70+ pages on this forum dedicated to the next generation of the AR15!
Here's a couple of my MRP's. Top-Bottom: -MARS MRP. 16"CL. Factory config. NX8 & SSA (or E) on the way. -MARS CQB. 16" CL. Got kind of robbed on this one. It's a MARS w/o the QD endplate or enhanced trigger guard. SSA. Gen2 razor. Surefire 300SPS. -DEF2K MRP. 16" CL. (The best of my bunch. Very impressed for a CL barrel) SSA-E. Magpul ACS. LRHSI 4.5-18. Silco Hybrid. Just as smooth-shooting as my DI MRP's that utilize the socom. The .46cal endcap minimizes back pressure in a slightly different fashion. Pretty interesting. I need to get a family photo sometime! But here's a snapshot. 
Only issue I had during today's range session was...nothing! Everything performed flawlessly in this beautiful -30* South Dakota blizzard. :) I'm not surprised at this point! |

How easy was it to push the takedown pins in? My unfinished MRP upper won't fit well on colt, CMT, or aero lowers @BNW - How unfinished is your mrp upper? No barrel installed? Have you tried tightening down both of the barrel locking screws? Whether the barrel is installed or not, i found that if the locking screws are tightened down, the pivot pin is much easier to press through the lower. |
