Why dont the Military use a complete LMT Rifle/SBR/M4


Does the military use the LMT   Tactical Adjustable Rear Sight on the 10.5 upper

the navy is using the little shorties that everyone here is hot after. they are called the MK 18 mod 0. there is a HUGE pic thread dedicated to them around here somewhere...

the .mil doesn't use "complete" rifles because that would just cost us taxpayers too much. instead they upgrade what they got, when they can.

the upper the MK 18 mod 0 is built with is the LMT 10.5" that many vendors sell on here. the military puts a lot of extra goodies on afterwards though.

yes they do.

i've used one also in the past. nice unit, but i don't like things right in front of my face when i'm using a red-dot. i prefer folding rears. if you don't care, you'll be perfectly happy with the LMT BUIS.

ETA: check here...

Im useing a Larue Cantilever/ML2 and a ARMS 40L same plane

I also have a Bushmaster Shorty I replace the original stock with a VLTOR and also replaced the shorty  upper with the LMT M4 14.5 The BUIS is the ARMS 40 with that wierd horizon Notch  500M/600M

My range only goes to 200 plus the berm another 20 yards


Has anyone tried the Horizon notch at 5/600M

I wish they would make a replacement aperture thats a same plane for that BUIS
