He said that is the starting point.

Barrel length change in a tOBR is a little different than a total platform change. Still worth a call, worst they can say is no. |

I think the LT104 is a little high Yes, its a Mark 6 3x18 with TMR reticle. The mount is the LT-120...the shorter version of the LT-111. This mount allows for the closest mount to the barrel as possible. I love it! |

The LT120 will not clear Troy BUIS. That is correct… Only on the OBR it clears the BUIS because of the cutouts and the 20 MOA built-in rail. |

Still Waiting on my Atlas PSR Bipod to come in, been backordered for a couple of weeks now. Also, possibly switch out the mount to the LT-111 or LT-120 down the road. ETA: Trying to get the picture to be embedded but it's not working, |

Damn right it does! Damn fine mulie! Thank you! I was lucky as I was having a hard time with getting a proper shot. Between my lack of hunting for the past (25) years and the sun blazing through my scope we managed to get the job done on the last day of the hunt. The other three that my buddies got were just as amazing. One of them is a member on here, not sure of his username but he stuck with me through the "quest" and it turned out good - what a blast. |

McCarron, so did you come up a smidge or leave it where it was?

PHEW...Long read...44 Pages worth...What an ordeal everyone went through...
Question, was this a Catch ALL thread for the tOBR in both 7.62 and 5.56 or is their a 5.56 thread just like it... I ordered mine earlier this week, two days ago, and got my shipping information already...so apparently they are DEFINITELY caught up, or 5.56 is in less demand and I'm one of the luckiest guys around! |

We're hovering around 1 week right now. After the price increase heads-up, we got slammed with PredatAR orders, but they should be caught up again by early next week. |

Ok..Mark, Sorry if this is a stupid question...I didn't know about that...when will it be and what is it going to go up to...I might just have to order the tOBR in 7.62 earlier than planned... Thank you! (From a fellow neighbor) |

Thank you for the answer...I was mildly freaked out, so I called LT directly and got the answer...I was never interested in the tAR...only the tOBR's....I endeavor to have one in each caliber....
Just got my swag box, which means my rifle will be delivered to my FFL shortly....YAY...hopefully I will be out shooting this weekend. If this rain actually hit's Austin this weekend, all of my Kid's activities will be cancelled and we can go enjoy shooting instead....
