The LWRC M6 series by Nutnfancy

Long term test complete and the LWRC M6 proves its excellence in TNP. With over 800 rounds fired, it didn't jam once, even with Wolf steel cased ammo. It is the first piston driven AR I've seen feed that steel ammo reliably. Attribute this level of reliability and durability to a perfected piston and bolt carrier system in the M6. Nickle Boron coatings, a self-scraping piston cup, improved piston return springs, and now a single piece bolt carrier group reside within these LWRC guns. Fit and finish is superb throughout and this now-collectible anodized Multi-regional Earth version is especially stunning. Nowadays if you want a coloration on your M6 it means a $150 up charge for the factory-applied CeraKoting. The mid-profile barrel is perfection. Its thickness is an ideal compromise for sustained fire and accuracy for extended engagements. It is Nicor coated inside and out, an improvement over chrome plating in the bore due to its thinness and consistency. This coating has passed extensive salt spray testing. Accuracy with regular ball ammo was disappointing even in careful fully resting shooting (however in RunNGun ie practical shooting it was excellent). With this example I achieved 2 to 3 MOA with American Eagle, PMC, and XM193/M855 loads. By contrast I see several high value DI AR-15s achieving sub MOA with the same ammo. With high quality and heavier ammo, it achieves sub MOA groups (impressive actually, shown). Strangely the 1/7 twist out the M6A2 5.56mm NATO barrel threw the 55 gr Noslers extremely accurately as well. The weight, at around 7.4 lbs is light for a piston AR-15 these days. The rail is too wide on this version and their new REPR style of rail, featured on the M6A2 SPR version, would be a huge ergonomic improvement. Fully equipped with Troy-produced (or in house "Skirmish") sights and decent grips and stock, the M6s come "RTR." You shouldn't have to add in anything to this combat and LE proven tactical carbine. Granted I put in a Timney 4lb trigger to see if bigger improvements could be made in accuracy (they weren't). This included trigger now breaks lighter due to high tech coatings; expect around a 5.5 lb crisp pull. Value is moderate at around $2000 and the track record is outstanding both in TNP and real world combat engagements. Several serious military and LE customers choose the LWRC M6 series above all others. ///////////////////////////////Nutnfancy Likability Scale: 8.5 out of 10/////////////////////Music Licensed to TNP from Jason Shaw

@USMCSC0UTSniper Will to look into that one

[nutnfancy]

@ilostanapple Thanks for the info and the info right!

[nutnfancy]

@JoeDurobot Agreed. You will see that sometime and have been trying to get the Mrs out with me but she hates the all day outings. I need to find the right girl, been looking. Need down to earth, cute, willing to work, and NOT looking for fame. Stay tuned .

[nutnfancy]

@MrSchpankme Exactly!

[topgun08848]

Great review as always! I've had my M6A2 since 2009 and love it, wouldnt change a thing... i bought it for the exact reason that it was basically R2R... Glad its TNP approved.

[jozineAirsofting]

How far 'tell the round starts to drop?

[556henry]

Will you be doing a review of the FN SCAR sometime in the future? How would you compare the two?

[QRFCombatVET]

You guys said in your video the LWRC M6 is the only AR piston driven system and that is NOT true at all. Check out the Hechler & Koch M416.

[QRFCombatVET]

What are the best kinds of magazines to use for AR's for civilian use and in war?? Polymer plastic or metal. Also maybe you guys could do a show on that as well.

[QRFCombatVET]

Maybe Nutnfancy, you guys could do a battle and or a shoot out LWRC M6 vs. Hechler & Koch M416. I would really appreciate it. Also what is the best ammo out there to use for reliability, accuracy, non-corrosive, damage, muzzle velocity, etc..

[QRFCombatVET]

The LWRC M6 is nice but I prefer the Hechler & Koch M416. It is also a piston driven system and is a whole lot better AR.

[QRFCombatVET]

@GREEDY602 Wold Ammo sucks. They are so many other kinds of ammo that are more accurate, reliable and cause less harm to the weapon.

[TheVLtor]

yeah, typo. anyway, 800 rnds is not even a day of a high intensity carbine class. fail. not that I dislike lwrc, it's just a nutnfancy fail (par for the course).

[TheVLtor]

800 ends is a long term test?! weaksauce.
