Yeah its good.  But its not worth $1300...  With Colt 6920s running for $1250 and under you should go that route.

Considering Colt 6920's cost around $1250, I wouldn't pay more than $1150 for an LMT and that is stretching it.  $1100 would be a good price...

It would have been a good price a couple of months ago.  If it has the SOPMOD stock, then it's still a decent deal.  The only issue with LMT right now keeping prices up is that availability is still limited.  Still, LMT defenders can be found for ~$1150 shipped right now on Gunbroker.

Forum supporter/partner JTAC Supply has a complete LMT Defender 2000 lowers for $305, something ridiculous like $314 shipped.  Buy that, find a 16" LMT upper ($485 on BCUSA), LMT BCG ($130 on BCUSA), any charging handle, and you've got your Defender 2000 for alot less than $1300 (well, you can spend $120 for the rear sight or get something else).  The only thing LMT that I haven't seen available in a long time is the charging handle sadly enough...but neither you nor anyone else will be the wiser for it (are there any identifying marks whatsoever on the LMT CH's?)

LMT is considered top teir, $1300 is not by any means out of the ordinary, could you possibly find it for a bit less?  sure,  new Colt 6920s are going for around $1250 new in box.  But your leaving out some key info.  is this a standard LMT defender or does it have extras?  do you know if it has the Sopmod stock? enhanced Bolt carrier?  Does it have there 2 stage trigger?   if it has extras then it is definately worth the $1300

hold on brother......quick change barrel IS NOT a LMT Defender 2000


it is the LMT MRP......and it is DEFINATELY worth $1300  actually thatsa GREAT price.......do you know if it the Standard MRP  or the MRP CQB(16in carbine version)


pics would help........and yes the Sopmod stock alone is worth $200




Does it look like this??   is this a whole rifle???  usually the MRP CQB or standard MRP upper is worth $1400 alone....full rifle around $1900......so if this is a complete LMT MRP  you better jump on it and fast.

LMT CQB MRP DEFENDER is what I am looking at. Gas not a PISTON....

MSRP on those is $1776. Even considering the usual discount that's a helluva good price

Buy it.

[#13]
$1776 IF you can find one......these are pretty hard to come by, even now that everything has slowed down.......When I do see them they are easily $1900  in the time of the craze they were going for even more.


This is very unusual that they are selling a LMT CQB MRP for $1300.....this is NIB?  why so cheap??   do they have more?? LOL :)


to the OP.....look at the first link I posted in one of my replies above....your SURE its that rifle??  is so  do not walk....run back to your FFL and buy it lol

There's a HUGE difference between that and the Defender 2000 that the OP mentioned.  Yeah, for $1300 if that's what it is buy it quick.

Ok, well since we are talking about an MRP and not a standard D2000, I will revise my answer...

...Yes $1300 is a good price...

There, you have my blessing and may now buy it.

Does the gun usually come with the barrel wrench?

Yes. It's just a regular torque wrench. Don't use the one that came with it. It's a made in China POS. Get a quality one.

If the gun is new, I want in. I already got 2(one DI and one piston) and is willing to purchase more. That's how good the MRP is.
