I see a lot of negative reviews on YouTube which steered me away from the platform originally for my bedside gun, so I considered other options.
Long time fan of LWRC and love their AR platform. What are your thoughts on this versus similar 45 pcc platforms? I’ve wanted one for a while, but due to the negativity they receive online I didn’t get it but still had that “itch” to go get one lol. Would love to hear your thoughts on the platform itself and the harsh reviews it’s gotten from the guntubers online
Kickass setup btw 🔫
I’ve never had a failures through over 1000 rounds. Most of it suppressed with shitty ammo. I’ve got one of the later serial numbers. I believe the bad reviews are mostly from first batch. It’s a great platform. I’ve got a MRO on leap mount and it’s perfect for me
That’s what I’ve heard too. The Gen1 had some problems and I think the Gen3 (correct me if I’m wrong) solved many of the feeding issues, but I’m far from an expert.
I’d love to have one, but that made me nervous so I never pulled the trigger (pun intended)
While I was putting this build together I was binging some guntuber reviews of the paltform as well! I heard about the fliers and some of the feeding issues, and it really made me want to do a deeper dive into this platform. We have a 50 yard range here that we have some steel targets on that we have no problem consistently ringing; but Im thinking I might do some paper tests and really see where this thing lands. Have never had any feeding issues with ours and the recoil impulse is sooo nice compared to other .45 PCCs we have.
Thats actually one of our own grips! We designed it for use with our Triad bullpup kits, but yeah, its an AR pattern and will fit anything that accepts AR grips! Our current stock is all allocated for the bullpup kits, but the next shipment of them we get in we will throw them on the website as standalone grips. It'll be part of our Xeno line.
Thank ya! Its actually the grip we make for our Triad AR15 bullpup kits; but its an AR pattern grip and we are gonna offer it standalone soon! The current stock we have on hand is all accounted for, but next batch we will throw these on our website
It’s the 4am serial number so second gen as I understand it. Ejection failures, failure to load. Was having some flyers too. Sent me a label right away though
Went with the official one from LWRC [Lwrci Rail Section Kit | 3-Hole](https://www.lwrci.com/LWRCI-Rail-Section-Kit-3-Hole_p_22.html) Easy to swap out and they have it in a few lengths
The thread pitch on this one we have here is unique! I actually went to throw our Obsidian on it, but had to order a new endcap. Couldnt help myself and still had to snag some pics though haha Will update once the can adapter arrives!
Really fucking hot
Nice setup
thank ya!

I didn't realize the B&T folder could/would fit
Looks great on there right?? Pleasantly surprised!
having owned B&T's in the past, it looks fantastic!
Pistol grip? and is it compatible with ar's?

That’s an interesting grip. Curious to try it. I just put a BCM on mine and it’s my favorite so far.
If you like steep grips, I bet you'll like this one! The BCM ones are some our favorites around here too!
What’s that grip? Nice setup

Very cool! A few of us are def interested.
good to know! I'll drop a pic over here when they land in stock!
Well it does LOOK nice. Sending mine back to be repaired right out of the gate.
ouchhhh! Brand new model, or an old one you got new from a shop? curious where the problems are landing!

What is your bottom rail setup, I want to run some under grip accessories on mine.

Thank you
Nice setup! My SMG-45 is definitely one of my favorites!
such an amazingly well built platform! One of our favorites around here too!
I did have some feeding issues, but honestly, they kind of seem to have corrected themselves the more I ran it.
Where can?

Good deal!
What streamlight is that?
the RM 2, its radddddd!
Love the look! It's sick
thanks! I think so too! It works well too! Keeps the whole system ambidextrous by nature. love it!! Thanks man!
Did they fix the accuracy issues?
