I agree and it's not like it's a lot more either. My LWRC looks identical to this guys pistol but mines all black and it's the M6IC-DI and I paid $1550, but the way I looked at is I built an AR rifle and its made with a really nice upper, and by the time I added ambi charging handle, the M lock, grip, better trigger and I don't have the fully ambidextrous and the price of all the parts put me OVER the price I paid for my LWRC!!! Once you own a LWRC you really admire the quality and then the price I 100% know they vould easily charge more for their firearms! Especially the direct Impingement!!
Very thorough review I agree with your assessment, if you want top tier equipment expect to pay for it. I have the the LWRC IC-SPR an expensive rifle for sure but worth every penny
Nickel Boron is a separate coating on the BCG. NiCorr isn't a coating it's a nitrocarborization process they treat the barrels with that hardens the steel and makes it more corrosion resistant. It leaves the barrels a nice shiny black color.
Looks like it shoots very softly. I was cringing seeing you shoot that close to steel without eyepro. I've already experienced splatter to the face a few times and it's very scary
new subscriber,,,,, helping you grow I have patiot brown IC A5 16 iinch, the piston system runs cleaner, and cycles flawlessly but have to admit the spiral fluted barrel looks really cool
Hey bro I'm around the easton p.a area you know any good spots I can practice shooting on the move? Thanks! And great videos lovin the content keep up the great info
It is so difficult to find ranges that allow people to do anything other than shoot from the bench. However, I will try and do a little research to see what I can fine for you
If you are going to have one AR then it should be an LWRCI. If you shoot a lot you need your rifle to hold up, and if you don’t shoot that often, you might as well have a great experience when you do go shoot.
The DI or Piston in .556 really doesn't do much because of the smaller round. The piston definitely has some advantages in war time situations so for a soldier there would be more reasons for a piston system. But for us regular ol civilians a DI M6IC with a binary trigger is a bad boy! This guy talking about Executive situation these guys can build a firearm for that and have a built in suppressor with a odd ball 12.5 inch barrel and have the barrel ported with a suppressor built onto the barrel so it's not at the end of the barrel and adding onto the length because it's all integrated. Daniel Defense does make a firearm exactly like that.
The first thing I noticed when I unboxed mine was, "How do I run a sling with this thing?" and the answer is I don't, I can't. To me the LWRC PDW is effectively worthless because it doesn't matter how it can perform if it ties up both of my hands and can never be maintained on my body while my hands do something else. It isn't a serious combat or patrol item, it is a range toy and nothing else. A series combat weapon or patrol weapon would be made so that I can retain it to my body without using my hands so I have hands free to do other tasks such as medical, communications, or going hands on with somebody. If I had known it is impossible to run a sling with the LWRC PDW I wouldn't have bought it. When I contacted LWRC to politely and formally inquire about sling options, they never responded. Is an officer responding to an active killer situation, having to do medical on a fellow officer, honestly going to set his PDW down on the ground to free up his hands? Any police chief worth his salt all require his officers to run slings on their carbines or PDWs. A PDW that cannot accommodate a sling, is basically useless for patrol purposes.
The stock is a proprietary system that needs a special bolt carrier. The bolt carrier and buffer are one in the same with this particular weapon so if you get the bolt and the stock I believe you should be able to use all of the other parts that you have
QD attachment, I have this exact same pistol and brace so size and everything and I use the brace for the stretch body sling and let it hang down. They have this new deal it is double straps and a simple flip and its free. Or hands free and you can slide it quick on your back like a back pack its pretty nice. The QD attachments you can use too, they are newer to me from hunting the old twist and put the pin in and close and twist. You can pretty much sling it any way ya want I use the loop integrated on my "brace " lol
YOU'RE NUTS FOR SAYING THAT LWRC UPPER IS AVERAGE!!!??? THE ONE PIECE CARRIER, THE MATERIALS USED ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST AND THAT'S WHY POLICE OFFICERS USE THESE!!!! BARREL COLD FORGED HEAVY THE HEAT TREATMENT WHEN ITS FORGED! THIS AR15 PISTOL LOOKS JUST LIKE MY LWRC M6IC in 10.5 INCH BARREL MINE IS THE DI VERSION WHICH I AM OK WITH, THE ROUNDS ARE COMING OUT SAME SPEEDS. I AM ALL ABOUT THE BUY ONCE CRY ONCE.....AFTER YOU OWN A LWRC YOU WILL LOVE IT SO MUCH THAT YOU WILL WANT ANOTHER!!!! DANIEL DEFENSE AND LWRC ARE ALWAYS COMPARED AND FOR A REASON. YOU PUT BOTH IF THE FIREARMS SIDE BY SIDE AND HAVE BOTH SHOOTERS SHOOTING UNTIL ONE HAS A FAILURE I WILL PUT MY MONEY ON LWRC 10 OUT OF 10 TIMES! CARRIER IS NOT A GROUP, THE BOLT CARRIER OS NOT ONLY MADE OF THE BEST MATERIALS THE CARRIER IS SOLID 1 PIECE!!!!!!
Sure buddy, LWRC are the same A-holes that tried to sell the LWRC 45 SMG to everyone for 3K+ while it sent fliers 8 to 12 inches off target. Yeah no thanks, LWRC and it's employees are trash and I'll spend my money on their competition, hopefully the scumbags at LWRC go out of business for trying to sell everyone dangerous junk weapons for ludicrously high prices.
It’s not worth it because the caliber is 5.56? I’ve got three LWRCs and they are flawless. Can you get a Palmetto for 1/4 the price? Yes. I have a Palmetto pistol too. It’s fine. But the piston system, the $200 sights, the barrel, the coatings on the internals, the trigger, the fit and finish are all far superior on the LWRC. I had to send the upper back to Palmetto because it didn’t fit correctly, so as he said, you do get what you pay for. These are not a ripoff by any means.
@@williamdeforte3032 attitude? armchair? You do realize barrel length on any weapon system is a pretty important factor in determining which application is best suited in a given situation. Example: you cannot compare a sig virtus 9 to a 10.5, 11.5, 12.5, 14.5 16 and so on. And I cannot compare this to anything because you can't tell me the barrel length. So, do better
Pat I said “around 8.7 inches which is DEAD ON with the flash hider… given the barrel length is 8.5inches and the hider sticks out about a little further… not too sure that Your statement was to be anything other than condescending…
Wow you're some kind of a snowflake! Thanks but no thanks lol guys like you with that kind of attitude is definitely the kind of Beta male, I mean are u a male or should I use your pronoun?? LWRC is too good for a whiner like you, over a barrel lenth LOL they usually come 10.5 but this barrel he has is from a different special model for Police & Swat. I got the Police/SOCOM version looks identical but 10.5 its the competition to the Daniel Defense MK18. But hey you go cry online over a barrel length, personally I ignore and delete snowflakes like you, too many whiners in this world, we just ignore you Karens!
@@williamdeforte3032 screw that cry baby. Cant stand petty guys like him. He's been alone for a long while and takes it out on his keyboard. He's definitely a very emotional person for a reason!
This is one of the best videos I've seen on LWRC weapons. If you don't own one, save your money and buy one. You won't regret it.

Your video helped me take the dive. Bought the pistol version and couldn’t be more stoked to throw a can on and get to work. Thanks sir!

I think that most every rifle that company makes his top quality

Thank you. I knew that. However I was dumping so much info But yes you are correct
This dude said it perfect .. you will get equal but not better ❤
Awesome video man!!! I love it.
Thank you for your videos, I find them very interesting. I'd like you to do one on the transition from that rifle to a pistol.
I will do a video on transitions in the future
Thanks for a very informative video. I just purchased my first LWRC. After watching your video I know I made a good purchase.
Great review seriously !
Thank you. Your input means a great deal
Simply say, Lwrc is a beautiful firearm.
Looks like it shoots very softly. I was cringing seeing you shoot that close to steel without eyepro. I've already experienced splatter to the face a few times and it's very scary

but have to admit the spiral fluted barrel looks really cool
Sabbath at the end was a nice touch….👍
I thought music and shooting was a nice end… thanks for the comment
I’ve never seen or heard of a bad LWRC. I’m sure you could find some complaints (no one is perfect), but I’ve never personally heard of a lemon.

Dude, great review but man where’s your eye protection shooting 5.56 at steel at such close range?
it is a shame that lessons cost, he will figure it out sooner than later
Great Video!!!
Thank you for the compliment.
I will be doing a review in the REPR in the future
Does lwrc flute their shorter barrels?
The first thing I noticed when I unboxed mine was, "How do I run a sling with this thing?" and the answer is I don't, I can't.

LWRC REPR PLEASE!
Will I be able to use the PDW stock and BCG without a LWRC lower or upper?
The stock is a proprietary system that needs a special bolt carrier. The bolt carrier and buffer are one in the same with this particular weapon so if you get the bolt and the stock I believe you should be able to use all of the other parts that you have
Currently bought the them both from LWRC and I have a AERO precision lower build coming along. Appreciate the timely response too man
Let me know how the build turns out…
Good video...Sir
Where do you mount sling?
I usually put an adapter on the top rail. For a single point sling. You can put two adapters one in front and one in the rear for a two points line
QD attachment, I have this exact same pistol and brace so size and everything and I use the brace for the stretch body sling and let it hang down. They have this new deal it is double straps and a simple flip and its free. Or hands free and you can slide it quick on your back like a back pack its pretty nice.

why does it feel like im watching a 90's action film
Probably because I suck at filming my own videos…🤷🏻🤣

bolt carrier is milled for multiple pews if you have that kind of paperwork
5.56…….nope, not even worth it. Don’t buy this

You "think" the barrel is how long? Cmon man, know your dang gun before you attempt to give a review. Thanks, but no thanks
Feel free to apply for our swat team and then you can do your own reviews… thanks but no thanks for your armchair warrior attitude
