LWRC SPR

Recommended Posts

Anybody got one? I was at Franklin Gun Shop last thursday and was drooling over a LWRC 16" SPR in ODG that they just got in ($2699 before tax!) The fit between the upper and lower was awesome with absolutely no movement. The free floating rail felt great as well.

I've been pricing them online, and it seems like a lot of dealers are out of stock and backordered for weeks.

Check out this beauty...

I spend most of my time on a forum where LWRC is hated for some fairly solid reasons. If I was going to do the piston gun I would probably just go for the HK, LMT, or SCAR.

Actually I would forgo the 5.56 piston gun and just get a SR-15 if I was going to get something with proprietary parts at all.

[size=5][color=#000000][font=Calibri]You should check out Whittaker Guns in Owensboro. They have the same rifle, with a Geissele trigger, for $2369. I was there yesterday and the had 5 LWRC SPR’s: 2 black and 1 OD with 14.7 inch barrels and 2 with 16 inch barrels, one OD and one black. [/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=Calibri]Whittaker is great to deal with. Plus sales tax in KY is only 6% if you decide to make the drive. [/font][/color][/size]

[size=5][color=#000000][font=Calibri]That statement says it all; I can’t believe you really posted that.[/font][/color]

[color=#000000][font=Calibri]On an internet forum you visit, you read something that someone heard about LWRC, and now they are “hated” for “fairly solid reasons” on said forum. You got to love the internet. [/font][/color]

[color=#000000][font=Calibri]There are lots of haters of various firearms out there, LWRC included, by people that have no experience with said brand, and little to no experience with firearms at all. [/font][/color][/size] Edited by PC7

Ya i was at G&L on friday and they had one SPR. It was the 16" black base model. they were selling it for 1950. If it was a 14.7" i probably would have bought it on the spot and just upgraded the furniture myself.

I completely understand your post and looking back I have no first hand experience to offer, and should probably have just let it go.

Politics fever running rampant this time of year I suppose. Carry on don't want to derail.
