Rapid Engagement Precision Rifle with self-regulating piston driven reliability.

Final Notes

LWRCI has addressed most all of the issues that come with this platform in this caliber. Short of making their own magazine, which is simply not cost effective, everything else has been addressed. Fact is, anyone taking a rifle to work should make sure all their magazines work regardless of design. It has always been the weakness of magazine fed rifles and likely always will be. It is accurate, reliable with solid magazines, ergonomically sound, and easy to shoot. The left side charging handle worked well and it was pleasant to fire that much ammunition and not having to suck up a ton of expended gas. If you are looking at a patrol rifle in .30 caliber take a good hard look at the LWRCI REPR, you will not be disappointed.

    SOA is not new at all, is in anyway cloud jargon’ nor is it complicated. It has been around since the start of the century, years before the idea of cloud computing arrived. The basic idea of SOA is to get rid of the spaghetti of connections and overlapping data and functionality of applications in a business application landscape.

    Why is it that when some gun writers review a new firearm they assume that because they would use it in a certain way so would everyone else?!?!? This is a pet peeve of mine and it is extremely annoying. It is also not restricted to one type of firearm nor one particular publication, but when a writer reviews a new rifle and doesn’t do a simple thing like an accuracy test because ‘I wouldn’t use it as a DMR’ all that says to me is that was too lazy to do his job properly!

    “Although I did not test it like a DMR, it was very accurate.”

    Really? How would you know? My AK can keep all its shots inside a 6″ circle at 100yds during shooting drills and do so for a fraction of the cost. That tells the reader absolutely nothing about the accuracy potential of the rifle being reviewed!

    Overall it was a good article, and is the first one I’ve seen so far on the LWRC REPR. Perhaps that’s why I am especially irritated at this one. I really like the looks and capabilities of the REPR, but really wanted to see what some individual testers got in the way of accuracy. No such luck here!
