Posted: 1/12/2012 11:08:08 AM On Wednesday the weather was unseasonably warm for Illinois in mid January. I took the new LMT to the range to wring it out. With only a couple clicks on the ACOG it was dialed in at 100 yards. After that, I was popping clay pigeons scavenged from the trap shooting area. The gun far exceeds the capability of it's operator (me). The muzzle brake purchased from Nate was installed and made a big difference. It will never come off! Everything worked perfect. The gun, my ammo, the weather and the company. The other equipment that I had with me just worked flawlessly as well. So nice when a plan comes together. Very happy with the LMT Bob

I only saw the mws 308 and the cqb in 566 in the video so i guess we will see. I also like the grip panels they are making to go along with the new enhanced upper.

It's all aluminum. IMHO the majority of the weight is in the barrel and extension. I can see where the slimmer hand guard will fit the average shooter's hands a little better.

Geissele SD-E is the perfect trigger for the MWS. I really thought the HK pistol grip looked odd until I tried one, it's a keeper. BABC Battlecomp works as advertised. Slash XH buffer and UBR combo is perfection. Leupold Mark 8 H27d is the shit.

Posted: 3/4/2012 3:17:29 PM The MK 8 is very nice! I have or have owned S&B, Zeiss, Hensoldt, US Optics, and a few others and this scope is as good as or better than the rest. I currently own a Schmidt Bender Short Dot CQB and in my opinion the Mark 8 blows it away in every category except size. I do not have an exact weight on the rig but it is heavy (12lbs?), although the MWS is always going to be regardless of optic. I had some thought of selling an M1A I have owned for a while to replace it with a Larue Predatar 7.62 16" for a light weight rig.

Posted: 4/22/2012 11:49:41 PM Some shitty iPhone pics of my MWS. I'll take some better ones when I get a chance, maybe even some pics of groups if I can get to the range this week. I just got my Spuhr mount in this weekend. The gun is finally complete...for now. I kinda blew my scope money on a steal of a deal on some .308 ammo, so the Vortex will have to do for now and for the price I think its great glass. I'll eventually upgrade to a FFP Nightforce scope and a TBAC or AAC SR7 suppressor. Here are the specs so far: LMT MWS 16" CL Spuhr SP-3616 scope mount Vortex Viper HS 5-15x44 scope Atlas V8.1 bipod w/ spiked feet Magpul PRS stock Slash XH buffer w/ Armalite buffer spring Magpul Miad grip Battlecomp BABC
