SHOT SHOW 2010 - Lewis Maching and Tools - 308 rifle system

What changed on the barrel? An AR is barrel + parts case + HMI.

You guys need to read the OP before posting questions that have already been answered

The UK rifle spots a 16" SS barrel with a guaranteed accuracy of 1.5 MOA out to 800m, with 155gr Scenar match. The civilian version will initially come with a 16" chromlined barrel - and later with a 18" version. The bolt carrier will be chromelined. The rifle uses SR25 magazine system. Like the MRP, the barrel is interchangeable.
 
I'll wait for the SS barrels unless there is a precision guarantee on the chrome lined barrel.

I only want this as a tack driver as .308 is too pricey for a high volume shooter.
 
figures the brits would want a "lewis" gun lol

No taking the piss out of the Brits. THEY now own the 'world's longest sniper' shoot, and with three consecutive shots with the .338LM, not a .50cal.

Anyhow, these guns are not for snipers, but for designated marksmen within the rifle platoon, supplementing but not replacing the platoon sniper section who are still armed with the .338LM.
