LMT MRP 12" SBR $1899.00 or a home built AA 8.5" SBR $700.00?
Wife and I own these. I got the LMT and love it, we go mag for mag when we go shooting and I've always looked at her Adams Arms when she's on the line and thought "lol, okay." As I tightly clung to my precious LMT. Don't get me wrong, she wanted a weapon she could paint any color without ruining any intrinsic value, so I used premium parts, PSA CHF CL 8.5" bbl, AA carbine kit, Spikes upper, LMT CH, Colt Defender 2000 complete lower, samson rail, magpul SL furniture. Like I said, great parts, no doubt, but I never looked at it seriously. Until after this last range trip. After cleaning, during really, I noticed an awful divot in the LMT upper, that was not present in the AA upper...
Neither weapon has had a single issue, ever, the LMT even cycled on a round that was so weak it sounded like a 9mm went off. I removed the round from the chamber, checked the bore, not hearing the PING on the steel target and an odd recoil impulse I assumed the worse yet it was clear.
Now the LMT cycles quite a bit more roughly than the AA by hand, and my ego has been dented.
Make up your own minds. Adams Arms has really impressed me.

The cam pin appears to be digging a trench in case the Jerry's come over the horizon.

Here's a couple of the BCG just because it still looks new. I might actually have to buy one of AA's glock slides or barrels now....
LMT if you're out there, is this okay? Is this normal? I've got a lot of DI AR's with way more rounds down range, often needing a BCG before the upper receiver started showing wear like this...
If you're not, I'll send over an email referencing this post.
