Yeah that makes me kind of glad I don't have an MWS yet.

Best thing to do is get on the June allocation list thru V1 Tactical in my opinion. Good luck.

I agree. Otherwise be prepared to pay $600-$700 for one.

I’ll just run a rubberized panel at 12 and the railscales at 3 and 9, and just pull the rubber panel out to remove the barrel. Way less effort than having to detach everything that’s mounted.

Do you mean rubber panel at 6 on the bottom of the rail? I might do the same thing then. How much work did you have to do on the rail scales to get them to fit on the 3 and 9 o'clock sides? Only reducing screw length or also nut?

Oh ya I meant at 6 o’clock for the rubber panel. I used a dremel on the screws that was it. Ground them down until they were flush with the nut after torquing them down. I pull the rubber panel off and the barrel can come out.

Yes, put one in my 10 year old 10.5" MRP over a year ago with a Geissele Super 42 H1 and I've achieved that gucci recoil, lol. Love it, one of my favorites to shoot now after years of such a violent recoil impulse. Good luck.

Anyone want to trade a unused RMR for a new 10.5" 5.56 MRP barrel?
Link Posted: 2/22/2021 1:55:33 AM EDT
[#20]
Wondering if anyone might have a LMT MRP Schematic, specifically one that shows the MARS-L lower.
Which would include the notched bolt catch?  VS. the LMT LPK kit pictures from the distributors that only show the mil spec (flat) bolt catch .
I ask due the need of said notched bolt catch , after losing one in a build fiasco..
I can identify many parts from the provided pictures online, but would love to see a full MARS-L schematic or parts list.
I'll hit up a few of the good LMT partners, just wondering if there is one floating around to share.

Thanks in advance and pics to follow the build!

Never got any spectacular groups with my LMTs for some reason. I think the best I've gotten was with my 11.5" chrome lined at 1.5" with mk262

Plenty good though

It can happen every now and then.  I had a 14.5 that shot around 1.4-1.8 with surplus.  Got a single 0.8” with PPU m193.  All 5 round groups.  Not really standard.  I’m happy with something around 2” with m193.  Rarely shoot anything different

A friend gave this to my daughter who is 12. Then found out she didn’t like pink! Internals were done in nickel boron. We call it the pink nightmare. It has a dedicated 22lr barrel conversion kit too. The .223 barrel was profiled down by ADCO and cut and pinned with a Vortex flash suppressor that has carbide glass striker tips that was old by CMMG back in the day. It was drug thru V7 to trim some weight here and there.

Same.  They're probably all getting snatched up by a few neckbeard scalpers ordering 20 at a time.

Not sure this is off topic...

Has anyone sent out a MWS 16" barrel to be re-profiled?  I'm just wondering how much weight can be trimmed off it.

I've got a 20" 6.5cm barrel and a 16" 308 barrel.  No reason not to make the 308 as light as possible since the 6.5 would be the heavy setup.

It looks like they released the upper for the 12.5's with no bcg, or barrel for 939 and no barrels even on the site.

Same, same, even have an already SBR’d MARS lower waiting for it, but I did score a MRP-H MLOK 15.5 for the 20” 6.5CM. And when are they going to release the cup-the-balls looking rail for the 12” piston?

Had to call LMT this AM because in my haste to get my long mws upper order placed at dinner friday night on my phone, I put the wrong zip code, lol. Anyway, while I had someone we all know on the phone correcting my mistake, I asked about spec war barrels and chassis' and the 12.5" barrels are still in production and chassis' will be trickling in. The spec war uppers put on the site friday were evidently leftovers for a run they made specifically for a contract run. At least it sounds like they will be permanent items in production when they get caught up on all their other products.

ETA:  Our man also said the 12.5" barrel has the same gas length and gas port as their 16" barrel.

I'd have to look through the archived threads but I think I got my first MRP in 05 or 06.  You've built a great pile over the years, I always enjoy your builds.

Thank you brother.  Likewise!

I blame my friend who sold me my first AR in a private sale.  It was a LMT.

It became my first SBR not too long afterwards when Form 1s were ~3 months.
