Do you mean the SMG-45? I own one.



Expensive, but a nice gun. Low recoil. I haven’t had any issues with mine. Like it a lot, but I wish LWRC had gone with MLOK instead of their proprietary rail slots.

how hard is it to get the rail adapters.

I would love to know more about it. How many rounds down the range?

It comes with the rail panel covers shown, six total, with one having a small handstop at the front, so if you just want covers, you’re good. But if you want anything else, you’ll have to buy from LWRC. So far, just a couple hundred rounds shot, all 230gr ball, including some old Norinco junk.

One other issue is that standard AR height sights (Magpul MBUS are included) and mounts are quite high since the UMP pattern stock/brace has a low comb. Similar to a CZ Scorpion with the factory stock, a low mount and sights work best IMHO. I’m using a low mount and offset sights.

Takes standard AR grips and triggers, but the factory stuff is fine, so I haven’t changed it.

If you want to run a suppressor, you need to use a booster piston and spring since the barrel moves back and forth.

Friend just bought one, it's an absolute tank. I've not shot it, this is just from some basic handling and dry firing, but it felt very well built.

I'd buy it sight unseen if someone knows where...

Thanks the last few I have followed went for a bit more than I'm willing to pay above list. But following and hoping. j

I was able to hold and examine one last week at the gunshop. It was surprisingly heavy, but every bit of it was very high quali.ty. It felt really good in the hands



Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice - pull down your pants and slide on the ice.

A buddy has one. It is a tank for sure, but I prefer my CMMG Banshee .45 due to the weight and it shoots smoother.

I've shot one and came away favorably impressed with LWRCs build quality. It oozed quality. It shot well suppressed and as a range gun that was literally just getting loaded and fired with a long wraparound line to shoot it, it seemed quite reliable.
