My LMT AR-15 (pics)

[Guest VandyZ]

Ok so I am buying a new gun and when I do that I always go through my collection and just psych myself up for the new addition. While I had the AR out I decided to snap a few pictures since pictures are so loved on this forum. They are not the greatest, but as long as I buy things that shoot lead, I cant afford a better camera to shoot.

This is an all Lewis Machine and Tool parts gun. The are a government supplier and everything is mil-spec. I built the lower myself using all LMT parts. The upper is a LMT 16" M4 Upper with t-marks, chrome lined barrel,1/7 twist, true M4 profile and barrel extension. I finished it off with ACE AR-15 M4 Socom Buttstock and Ambi Ergo Sure Grip.

Looking to go free floating rail system soon!

Enjoy . . .

I will be sure to post pics of the new pistol when it comes in.

LMT is good stuff. Nice!

Sweet... that's pretty nice. LMT's monolithic rail platforms look nice too... I'v never handled an LMT, but their reputation is excellent.

Yummy.

Nice choice with the buttstock, imho.

Looks like a nice shooter you have there.

What kind of price range. I am thinking about building/buying myself one soon.

I agree, I don't think I've seen a stock exactly like that one. If you don't mind me asking, how much did the stock set you back?

[Guest VandyZ]

I paid i think $155 from del-ton.com when it was on sale through ar-15.com.

I tell you nothing about that rifle was cheap. LOL I set out to save money and build my own and when I started picking out the parts I liked, it was clear I wasnt going to be saving any money on what I could pick up say a store bought Bushmaster. Had I found a comparable built manufactured rifle it would have been about 30% more than what I paid for all my parts. So I guess in the end it was worth it. I dont know how much money my rifle would fetch, but I know its as nice, if not nicer than anything I could have gone out and bought.

The one thing i skimped on was the rail system. I should have just done it then. Oh well.
