Our Lowest Prices Ever on LMT Rifles...
- Thread starter Questar
- Start date
I'm at LMT all this week and spoke to them today about the 6.5 barrels... they appear to be "available" for us to place orders now, though delivery is not too specific... my best guess is that we're looking at 8 to 12 weeks.
Should have them up on our website and available for custom order sometime next week when I get back. It would appear the other calibre options will also be up on our website next week as well... I'll have more info on delivery estimates at that time.
The 300 AAC BLACKOUT is undergoing final test firings (torture testing if you will)... they are about to do a high round test now (between 5,000 and 10,000 rounds). I have a feeling we'll see trickle deliveries over the next few months but honestly don't think they'll have volume shipments until end of this year or even after the next SHOT Show.
One new item not previously announced is a 7.62x39 barrel/bolt conversion for the MRP... We're placing an initial order for some of these... we may see them in the next few months or LMT may decide to officially release them at the SHOT Show. Hope to have pricing up on our website next week as well.

Fantastic! My attempt to get a 6.5 Grendel up and running has been an exercise in frustration. This will be my new direction.

My 14.5" defender showed up a few days ago. Fantastic rifle!
The only issue was the rivet in the magazine was sticking out too far, which prevented the magazine from entering the magwell. A file and some JB weld fixed it though. Just a note to make sure that the magazines function in the rifle before sending them out.

Hey Mark,
Don't know if this belongs here but is it possible to buy a LMT MWS 308 complete upper or only complete rifles? I am specifically looking for a LMT MWS 308 upper with 20" stainless barrel.

That's a straight out error on our part. We check every magazines for fit and drop free... at least that's the procedure our guys in the back are supposed to follow... can't explain how yours slipped through but we will get to the bottom of it and make it good for you.
Please email me with you name and invoice number so I can find out how that happened and make it good.

While at LMT this past week one topic we spoke about was the sale/availability of 308 parts and sub-assemblies.
Right now the factory is pumping out 308's as fast as they can. The MWS is in great demand right now, both commercial sales and military contracts which continue to grow and extend. As a result of this demand for complete rifles they simply don't have the supply of "upper halves that they can sell on their own... every upper they build gets turned into a complete rifle.
There is no issue getting any part we might need for warranty repairs, etc., however, LMT does not expect to be offering commercial sale of "uppers", etc. until they get caught up on rifle orders and get a stock pile of parts and assemblies that will allow them to comfortably sell those items on their own without affecting the supply of complete rifles.
My guess is we're looking at sometime next year... but rumours I've heard about some possible new contracts could extend that further.
The barrels and calibre conversions for both the MRP and MWS are becoming available now... saw literally thousands of barrels in various stages of production and you'll see us offering those very shortly and deliveries should ramp up over the next weeks/months.

Thats funny..mine was the same way.
Same message to you then... email me with details on who you are and your invoice # so we can get to the bottom of this mistake. We're human... staff makes mistakes... all we can do is try to fix the mistakes and make sure it doesn't happen in future.
Unfortunately we don't know who people are from posts on Gunnutz... we have no way to associate a person's "user name" to an actual name and order so email us with your info and we will follow-up on this.
I've been away all last week at the LMT factory.... back in the office Monday and if you email us (address below) we'll be happy to resolve this.

No Worries Mark,
I understand completely. Service was excellent and the rifle is as well. I was actually quite surprised at how quickly I got it. I will definitely be making more purchases when my wife is not looking so carefully at the bank account

Thanks for the info Mark,
I now ask can I order a complete rifle with a 20" SS barrel?

That configuration is not currently being offered by LMT as a complete rifle, though you can buy the 16" gun and then purchase the 20" SS barrel separately as an add-on.
I can ask LMT if they will sell us the gun custom built with the 20" SS barrel, but the price will probably end up being very close to the price of the 16" gun plus 20" barrel... we won't get the SHOT Show price break we got last January and that we have the 16" guns on sale for right now.

Contact Scott by email
LMT considers the 13.5" barrels as a "MIL only" product at this point and are not selling them commercially in the US (at least not for now).
We do have 1 here in Canada that arrived about 3 weeks ago... but we've only been showing it to LE/Military customers as per LMT's current policy.
E-mail me for more info about this.

Any more info on the .300 Blackout MRP barrel from your visit to the LMT factory?
ETA / Lengths?

They have finished barrels sitting there but they have not "officially" released anything at this point. There was some difficulty getting large quantities of ammunition... this delayed some of their testing plans. They have now received enough ammo that they are about to begin their "high round count" barrel test.
I can say that as it stands the commercial length will be 16". There are shorter versions being tested and I would expect a short version to be released at some point but can't say what length that will end up being.
