Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By mnm567: Hello! my good friend RotorWash109 has introduced me to the MRP platform and after shooting rifles from his collection, I have decided to build an LMT. I've been a huge fan of quality products in life and have seen and felt the difference quality parts of LMT can make. This will be my first MRP (probably of many). I posted in the WTB thread but understand that section can often be overlooked. Would anyone have a used CQB quad rail upper they would like to sell? I prefer quads, as I have meat hooks for hands. Thanks for reading, and I'm excited to complete the build. Someone here has to have a cqb quad upper sitting around for my man here...... Help a fellow addict out.

More pieces to the puzzle. I thought mrp chassis were shipped too but I guess not.

Mind boggling how these are all arriving in segments. You’d think LMT would just dip everything and ship everything and be done with the order. |

 Attached FileEven thou my parts aren't tanodized I got a few more things in for my build. Waiting for LMT is almost as bad as NFA. The RE is the LMT 308 or A5 length which is the main reason I didn't buy a complete lower and because I had to, the endplate is the QD LMT.. castle nut is colt but oh well the whole thing won't be LMT  It seems I chose poorly with who I backordered my lower and EBCG from. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By DrDre: Quick question on the LMT imperial rear sights. I just bought a set for my MRP, and when I attached the rear sight, it appears slightly tilted rearward when in the locked position... is this normal for these sights? https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/468310/IMG_0716-1393409.jpg You may want to try sitting the sight on a flat surface to see if it still appears angled. If so, I'd contact LMT. If not, there's probably something funky going on with the rail attachment. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By emtothedee: Where the hell did you find an lmt x39 barrel PM sent. EDIT TO ADD: I ended up jumping in and buying one. I plan on doing a 13.8" Pin and weld job with a SOLGW NOX flash hider. Being a non-SBR it will make a nice HOG gun for going out of state on short notice. I'll run the included LMT bolt until it breaks, and then buy a JP or MAXIM.. they have much better longevity reviews. For anyone looking for one, go onto GunBroker and search "L7LA1B". One of LMT's dealers just got 15 barrels (16" Chrome lined 1/10) with bolt. LMT had the blanks sitting in their warehouse for 15+ years... most likely for an alphabelt agency contract overrun.

^ I've seen 20 or so MRP barrels, with a mixture of SS and chrome lined.
I haven't seen enough of a difference to give up the benefits of chrome. The best MRP SS barrel I've seen was barely MOA, and the best chrome lined I've seen was pretty close to it. I only use chrome lined. The only exception being SS service rifle barrels for High Power/CMP. |

Question--any luck with the bulk hornady 75gr BTHP's in any of those CL barrels? Mine HATE them. Including the hornady .223, 556, and frontier loadings. (and I have several CL'd barrels...and 5K 75gr HPBT's) |

My range just opened back up so hopefully I’ll be able to make it out and see what she does.

The only exception being SS service rifle barrels for High Power/CMP. My 16” MWS CL seems to hang out right around MOA right along with my other MRP CL. I’m interested to see what the SS does. I may have to give it some time- my other LMT CL Barrels all needed 2-400 rounds to “settle in”. So I’m warey to just shoot a few groups and judge it but we’ll see. |

.89 MOA today with my 13.8 5R MLR, with shit, 62 grain ultramax ammunition. I was shocked and not looking to really pattern anything with it. I just wanted to get the optic on paper. Co-worker was using his, with same ammunition, but a16” C/L and the barrel wasn’t having it. I’m excited to get some decent ammunition to see what it likes. To be honest though, for the money, if it patterns like that consistently, with the 62 grain Ultramax, barring it wasn’t an N=1, I don’t know why I wouldn’t stick with it.

After I got the 5" barrel I was worried I went to short but I think it'll be perfect after laying it out. I'm wondering if I should throw a LAW folder on my lower. Thoughts? I have a couple LAW folders, and 1 PDW style (MAXIM CGB Gen 7) The LAW is my favorite for packing a rifle away in a smaller bag/backpack... but the PDW is more usable inside a vehicle or even a house. With the LAW you obviously need to fold it open, the PDW stock is ready to fire in all positions. Dimension comparison, I believe the Maxim adds 3.9" to the folded LAW, but has no added width, and is a couple inches shorter in it's firing condition. The CQB version also doesn't require a modified BCG, you can use anyone you want. You do need a shortened buffer, which they do make 9mm versions. I use a JP silent capture in mine, and it is a joy to shoot with 300blk. I was originally worried about the cheekweld, but this version actually feels really good, and there isn't any gaps, or having to put your face on skinny rails. https://lanbosarmory.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=107&products_id=50277
