10.5" Larue OBR 5.56 Full Auto!

Hey guys,

You are probably aware LaRue Tactical held a big Range Day event this past weekend. It was a blast, and a big thanks to LaRue for putting it on.

While I was there, I got to shoot a fully automatic, short barreled, suppressed, OBR Lite in 5.56. I’m not sure if they have announced/released this rifle yet, but I sure hadn’t seen it. The shortest barrel they show on their website is a 12", but this was a 10.5". It was outfitted with a SureFire suppressor.

Sorry the pics aren’t the greatest, but I thought you guys might like to see them:

The line to shoot it moved slowly because they wanted to let the suppressor cool down some between each shooter.

:eek:

This is me; keep the ugly jokes to yourself. :smiley:

Woot!

This peaks my interest. Thank you for sharing.

Well, now I’m even more disappointed I didn’t get to go. Thanks for posting!

Don’t worry, I’ve seen uglier! :stuck_out_tongue:

What T-1 mount is that?

5

Looks to be their HK medium height mount.

Is that a gap between the upper and lower at the rear or is some photo bug that’s causing it?

Surely he would not have a gun with a upper that far off from the lower.

That has to be the lighting. Just a shadow looking like a gap, but that’s just a guess since I wasn’t there…

If you’re on a laptop, tilt your screen forward (like you’re looking down from above). This causes the screen to get lighter, along with the image, and you can see there appears to be the little indent as usual where the back of the lower goes from being thicker than the upper to the same size to meet the thicker rib of the back of the upper…

….but I’ve been wrong before!

thats it… Im getting my manufacturing liscence.

9

no matter what I do it looks like a gap but as you say it could be lighting.

i’m pretty sure it’s just a shadow line between the built up area of the lower’s RE rise and the upper… the receivers being billet, are thicker in places than standard forged receivers- looks like larue leaves a nice fat band of aluminum in that spot on the lower.

Sorry for the lack of quality here, but I was working on the small file and I figured no one would care how it looked…

I apologize for using your image Scott2501, but I figured in this instance it was helping. I’m a photographer, so I’m usually pretty careful about these things. I’ll remove if it you’d like.

thanks that cleared it up
