LMT MRP Piston goes to war?

[Xpertz1]

I don’t know where you heard that because my nephew is one of the group testing them “in combat” right now, and he has had very few problems or complaints. Someone is blowing smoke !!

Come on gents…lets not turn this awesome thread in to either a D.I. vs piston or a 416 vs. m4 thread…after all MRPS equate to Burger King…HAVE IT YO WAY…

It could just be a guy in Special Ops (Army or Air Force) who put their own upper on the issued lower. It is quite common.

May even be Christians In Action SAD guys.

This is awesome.

Go LMT!

Maybe their next big ad campaign will be “MIM FTW!!!” :rolleyes:

DEA in Afghanistan have LWRCi guns.

Another idiotic weapon selection by the DEA!!! They should go 3 for 3 and pick Olympic Arms next!!!

markm,

I think I speak for many when I say the following and I’m going to try to be as polite as I can. You have made it abundantly clear in countless threads that you do not care for LWRCI or their products and its perfectly fine not to like someone’s product. What isn’t fine is that you continuously berate them and vocalize your disdain for the company to the point where its teetering on insanity. I don’t know what has caused you to have so much animosity built up inside for a firearms manufacturer that you jeer and scold them when given the slightest chance and I really don’t care but its unnecessary and it needs to stop. And just to let you know, I don’t own an LWRCI or ever plan to in the foreseeable future so I’m not some fanboy who is angry you dissed my favorite rifle. I’m just a person who has read one too many of your posts and has had enough. Please, give it a rest. It really doesn’t have to go any further than this. Just accept responsibility for yourself and continue on with being a very productive and otherwise knowledgeable member of the board. Thank you.

LWRCi doesn’t have a good reputation for good reason. If you do a little searching around on the boards you will find out why. He is free to express his opinion when and wherever he likes, especially since he has a great point.

The incessant nagging/bitching bout ANY make has long since grown old and beneath us all… can we get back on topic please?

Can ya’ll educate a relative newbie (I obviously am since I can’t tell what that is in the picture :D) on exactly how you came to the conclusion that that is an MRP upper???

The bolts for retaining and swapping the barrel are easily spotted on the MRP. Look just forward of the ejection port at the point at which on an standard M4 or M16 you would see the Delta Ring.

Look at the silhouette of the upper; look towards the barrel and you see the very large gas block/heat sink/piston head protruding above the barrel.

It’s not unheard of for teams to make unit purchases of certain firearms in the SOF community. Nothing really new here to see in my opinion.

I do know of some LWRC uppers that where a unit purchase and some TRP Operator 1911’s that where also a unit purchase.

What’s the big deal here with this photo ? :rolleyes:
