Just had a crazy though, don't know if it would be possible. Could you create an external bracket that could make the LPC a pump action rifle? What I'm thinking of would look kludgy, but might work. You attach a length of paired rails via mlok to the bottom of the handguard. Riding along those rails would ride a half handguard length section of mlok. I envision it working something like the slide drawer rails in a desk, perhaps even using ball bearings in the same manner. You would attach a foregrip or handstop to the front of the the mlok "railcar". To the back of the "railcar" you would attach a bracket. From the front of rifle, the bracket would be u-shaped. From the sides, the "arms" of the U-bracket would either be angled straight towards the charging handle holes, or form an L-shape, with the arm running to straight below the charging handle hole, and then going straight up. You could then use a longer bolt to go through a hole in the bracket to the charging handle. The other side of the bracket would connect to another copy of the charging handle on the other side.

Although it wouldn't be as clean looking as a dedicated pump action rifle, the advantage of my idea is you could take it off if you wanted to shoot prone or from a tripod.

Am I crazy, or would the above be possible?

We have no plans on making the Light Practical Carbine a pump action.
 
June 9 Update:

The first batch of uppers is complete and will be sent off to finishing shortly!

The first batch of bolt knobs is finished and en-route to us from anodizing.

The first batch of bolt bodies is well underway.

Today we are starting on lowers!

I was living under a rock and completely missed this. Is it possible to get a "custom" S/N for the rifle (Order 1650)? If so its be my # from the CAF (late retirement present, thanks to the OIC taking away my original retirement present)
 
Just a Friday update for everyone.... The lowers are coming along well. We finished the first operation on the lowers yesterday and are now moving onto the 2nd. We have our bolt knobs in hand from the finishers and they look great. I'll take some pics.

Typically we machine on Saturdays, however we will be taking this Saturday off for some much needed 3-gun. Don't worry, we'll be making chips on Sunday!
