(5 out of 5) Awesome Rifle / Awesome Service
by from San Antonio, Texas on

I purchased the LMT Defender CRP with a little trepidation as Im a huge KA SR 15 kinda guy in 5.56. I bought it as I know LMT has a good reputation. I ordered overnight and SOSS DID NOT DISAPPOINT. It arrived at my FFL at 10:30 the following am. After seeing the absolute awesome quality of the rifle and then shooting at steel only out to 300 yards, I can say without quest that LMT is absolutely a top tier AR. IF I were to give one ding it would be to SOSS for not keeping enough products in stock. Their service and prices r two thumbs way up. 6 STARS ALL THE WAY AROUND!!

Couldn't be happier with my purchase. This is a high quality rifle all the way around.

(5 out of 5) Can't go wrong with LMT
by from Minden, NV on

This is my 2nd LMT DI rifle over the past 4 years. I'm an AK guy at heart but also own a Sig516 and former longtime owner of an HK MR556. The LMT is my favorite AR rifle. Both my LMTs have never failed me. These are top end ARs and are just as good as LWRCs, HKs and KACs, IMO. The only negative is the cheesy mag/s that come with the package.
