Full Auto LWRC REPR

Re: Full Auto LWRC REPR

So this may be dumb but. 1st thing I noticed on this Vid. was when the shooter did the FA fire with Multi-mag. change-outs . Why was there No 'last-round' bolt Hold-Open ??? . He manually cycled the Bolt for 1st round on every new Mag . with that model 308 ?

Re: Full Auto LWRC REPR

Hmmmm, not, sure what you are referring to softcock. The bolt held open on every mag during the 'mag dump' portion. He did manually cycle the side charging handle to load the first round on a few mags.

Re: Full Auto LWRC REPR

AHhhhh, L-side Bolt handle . Pretty Fing slick .
Never got into owning or shooting any .308 gas guns . nothing bad against them but I just don't care for them .
I have to admit that that .308 is a pretty nice looking Rig. even without the FA added .
.
edit to add:
I went back and watched it again & now I see that he did manually cycle the 1st round on the 1st, 6-7 Mags. but on the last couple in the pile he pushed/used the Bolt Release button.

They need to improve their salt proof coating that thing was really rusty.

Cool video but I bet that barrel is trashed after that 12 mag dump.

I'm not so sure. Those CHF nitrocarburized barrels can take some punishment and keep ticking.

Throw your AR in a salt bath that long and lets see how it turns out.... and the barrels will hold up just fine: I've got roughly 6k through my M6:

LWRCI™ rifles and carbines
utilize cold hammer forged
barrels made out of 41V45 steel
alloy (per Mil-B-11995E) and
treated with NiCorr™ surface
conversion technology. Cold
hammer forging takes a gundrilled
barrel blank and high
pressure rotary hammers compact
the barrel blank over a mandrel.
This forms perfect rifling devoid
of tool marks. It also compacts
the molecular structure of the
metal making it denser and
stronger. These barrels can take a
lot more use and abuse than a
standard barrel before any
degradation in accuracy or loss of
velocity. NiCorr™ surface
conversion has proved more
lubricious, harder wearing, more
heat and corrosion resistant than
the hard chrome normally used
in the bore. Our barrels can
handle 20,000 rounds before
replacement, as compared to
6000-10,000 rounds on a
standard M4.

Re: Full Auto LWRC REPR

Excellent video! I noticed the charging handle looks identicle to an Israeli FN FAL charging handle that acts as a foward assist when used with the appropriate bolt carrier. I'm wondering if it has the same function on the REPR?
 
Re: Full Auto LWRC REPR

As fun as that looks that Vid is a good arguement for 3-shot burst. Had that been a firefight that guy would have been out of ammo in short notice. Nice weapon though.

Yes it does.
 
Fongman, thank you! I've been meaning to show this to friends of mine. What is most amazing is that the bolt is cool enough to handle right after all 240 rounds.
 
I would say a DI Gun would do just as well. You couldnt just pull the bolt out and touch it right after words. As long as everything is lubed up good. I know I have run combat Loads through my M4 on burst, mag after mag with no cool downs and it has made it 210 rnds with out a glitch.
