Kiwis adopt U.S. made LMT AR-10 for new Designated Marksman Rifle |
2015-08-18 |
[TFB] The New Zealand Army has adopted the Lewis Machine & Tool LMT .308 AR-10 rifle as their Designated Marksman Rifle. Last year British Army also adopted the LMT 308 as a designated marksman rifle. The rifle looks to be a similar configuration to the British L129A1. The differences that I can see are the use of a Leopold 4.5-14X scope instead of a fixed power Trijicon scope, a foldable foregrip and backup iron sights mounted at a 45 angle. Guns&Ammo LMT .308 Review found here. |

#2 I have an AR-10 carbine. Yeah it kicks a little, but if I really need it, 20 or 25 rounds of 7.62x51 beats 5.56x45 hands down. |
