Just visited the LMT site to see if there were any updates on the availability of the new .308.  Has anyone heard any updates.  Last I heard was June....and it's June.

I was also surprised to see the MSRP jump up to $2797 and $3333.  I can't say that I am as interested in it as I was at the $2500.  Wonder why they increased?

I know they're not really anywhere near the same rifle but maybe you should look at an ArmaLite AR10. You could buy a lot of accessories with the money you save and they are great shooting rifles.

I've got one on order and the price was nothing approaching 2500, it was quite a bit cheaper. I don't recall the exact price but it was well under two. My dealer ordered early and may have gotten a cheaper price because of that.

Some people got the first shipment in April. The rest of us got bumped for the MoD. Hopefully the end of this month.

I here you. I have been buying stuff for months now. I think I have more 308 pmags than I really need but they are cheap.

I am merely pointing out that there is a specific tech forum for AR variants. Might get better responses over there.

Just bought one for $2395. They had 2.

If the guy above is really getting a MWS (there are quite a few cheaper MRP models) for well under 2k –– he's getting one helluva deal! MSRP is $2800.

I'm at the office now and we have our first community concert (we sponsor a 12 week series - free to the community
) this evening, so I'll try to get some later tonight and post them. Actually, I'll try to get my wife to take some, as she is the photographer in the family.

My wife is the photographer in the family. She doesn't mind taking pictures of my rifles. All i have to do is take a couple shitty pics and she comes down and does her magic. She is a very good photographer.

I was originally looking for a RRA .308 with no luck at all (I wanted to use all those FAL mags I own). People around me were getting more than MSRP for them.



I am so glad I waited. This rifle is superior in every conceivable way to any AR-style .308 I've ever handled (No, I haven't shot, nor could I afford, a KAC). Now for a scope . . .

Suggestions? The obvious always come to mind; Leupold Mark 4, ACOG. But I really need to keep my purchase to about a grand - including mount.



I know it will end up with high-end glass, but I've purchased 2 guns this week and I'm buying a deuce and a half next week (Independence Day parade truck). So, I'm looking for something to use while I get used to this rifle and then move it to another gun in a few months.
