Larue OBR 556 are online

This was pretty much the only long gun I saw at Shot this year that I knew I had to have. The hand guard feels great and the entire package is ultra-light.

That said…Ordered ^o^

thats sure one purdy rifle…I wish I had 2 grand to drop on it…Larue makes stellar products and Im a huge fan of there mounts…etc// and dillo dust :slight_smile:

That thing looks amazing.

What’s up with the receiver plate?:confused: Kinda thinking it’s on backwards.

Does look like it.

While it looks a nice setup I only find a limited use for medium stainless barrels, and I already have a Stealth. Wouldn’t really do many any good to buy another limited use weapon.

At least they did a good job of staking it. :smiley:

Lucky $%^@&*

I see you’re in NJ, what are they doing to make in NJ legal as far as stock and muzzle device?

Pinning the stock one click open and throwing an FCS556 on the front end. I have to rock the 16.1" (was hoping for a 14.5").

j

Pinned FSD566? Can’t have a threaded bbl with the ability to accept a muzzle device that threads on right?

I am so jealous!

I wonder how this would compare to the Noveske, would have to be a VIS Lo-Pro with switch block to have the same features like the adjustable gas block, monolithic upper and so on. The Noveske is roughly $400 more.

Hmmm…

Interesting…

I already sent an email to LaRue about it. Let’s see what happens…

I hope its not like the les baer deal.

These questions always come to me when everyone has left for the day. Does anyone know if they will be selling the 7.62 or 5.56 upper alone? Or, do you have to buy the whole rifle?

Considering that the whole stock and receiver extension will turn as it is set now, I hope they don’t come back with a stupid response.

Whole rifle. These look cool, but from handling them at SHOT they were just like Larue’s other offerings…heavy.

XXXXXX

I’d like to see the weight stats on these.

ETA: Actually, it is right on the LT Tactical website…

  • Weight of 16” model (with 30 round magazine): 8.79 lbs

The plate on the pictured rifle has been reversed now. Presumably they got in a hurry to get a rifle to the photographer and made a little mistake. It happens.

Also happy that they didn’t try to justify it like Les Baer did…they just fixed it.

Tell me why I’d rather have that than an MRP?

*It does not use proprietary barrels.

*While it may be a little overweight compared to the current trend of lightweight/pencil profile barreled uppers, it is still probably lighter than an MRP.

*You want to, (and are capable of) squeeking every last bit of accuracy out of it as possible.

I have no need for a SS barreled 5.56 gun myself, but im sure there are many that want one.
