- The LMT Specwar is the gun I am grabbing with SHTF. So many features on this gun I would like to highlight, but I'll let the video speak for itself. This gun is an absolute hammer and a tack driver. Here's how I have it set up:
@lmtdefense3927 Specwar 12.5"
@VortexOpticsUSA Razor 1-6 Gen II
@TrijiconInc SRO
@UnityTactical FAST LPVO Mount
@bemeyerscompany MAWL C1+
@GeisseleAutomatics SD-E Trigger

Finally someone did a Specwar video, thank you
You’re welcome!
You spent almost the entire video talking about the accessories you put on the rifle, and barely spoke about the rifle itself. 😐
I guess I should have titled it differently. What would you like to see in future reviews?
Dude, no one comes to a rifle review to hear someone talk about their f*cking optic, stock, buffer tube, and other worthless garbage. People want to know how the barrel performs, how the gas system functions, reliability, what buffer is necessary, accuracy, velocity, etc.
@@hunter-constantineyour title is fine! Personally I would have liked to hear as to why SF tier 1 operatives prefer this particular setup. Optics, barrel length, chosen suppressor etc. while you did go into some of these topics I believe some viewers are extra sensitive as we can clearly see the performance in the vid! I enjoyed and look forward to seeing more bro💯💪🏽🎯
@@hannibalbarca2939bro its lmt what are u gonna say? Everyone knows its reliable and good
Well , we all know how great LMTs are. Their rifles are on par with KAC.
I have a specwar and managed to snag one of the specwar uppers during a drop on LMTs site. The gun is beyond smooth shooting, especially with my RC2 on it. I highly recommend upgrading to an A5H2/H1 buffer system, it makes it even better
A5H2 is ridiculously smooth. Nice grab!
Or maybe Geissele S42 H3? A bit more buffer weight, better spring and no added length. Just a theory tho, I bet it should work with higher backpressure cans.
@@JohnZ556A5 system typically runs a sprinco spring.
I’ll take a sprinco spring over G$ any day. You put one in your lower and you will literally never wear it out. It’s rated for like 10,000,000 cycles.
Same with your extractor springs. Swap them out for the sprinco (different coils depends on ur gas system) and it makes a huge difference over the likely bottom tier springs in your BCG
i have an lmt estonia, its great
Yesssss
You may wanna double check that the while the unity fast lpvo mount is the tallest stand alone mount, it only sits at 2.05”, the unity fast red dot mounts are the ones sitting at 2.26”. A fast riser or absolute fast riser is needed to get to the 2.26” height with lower 1/3 or absolute cowitness lpvo mounts
Good call. It’s been a while since I looked up the height. *frantically changes my ballistic calculator*
Either way I find that the taller mounts are easier to pick up the reticle being cross eyed dominate
@@hunter-constantine As a non cross-eyed dominant person, I still also agree that taller mounts are a lot more comfortable. Not to mention the ability to passive aim with nods is nice too.
I have a strong feeling that 2.26 LPVO mounts would soon become a thing with red dots going to taller 2.91 mounts like the GBRS mount.
First time coming across your channel🤞🏽 that intro was dope let alone the specwar review.
Got yourself a new subscriber brother
Thanks man! More to come!
Once a month I get a channel recommendation i like, thanks Mf/Google! Here to stay!
Welcome my child 👴🏼
I watched part of this video and realized I never finished it. I also have a 12.5 specwar and have run Sierra 5, sandman S, Rex MG7K in .358, and the number 1 improvement for this gun has been the BRT gas tube. I can’t recall if I commented this or not before but dude, it changed the entire rifle. Even if you put a flow 556k on it, I would try it. Takes less than 10 minutes to swap and just the two barrel bolts and the single gas tube pin. They make one specifically for LMT’s and just tell them your setup and I swear it made this gun actually shootable. It was absolutely miserable before with a Sierra 5 and even a h3 buffer and enhanced carrier. Idk how they sell these guns to groups that plan on suppressing them, it’s ridiculous
I’ve got something similar on the way! I do agree it can be gassy especially in confirmed area. I still used this gun more than any of my other ARs. Good looking though. Can’t wait to try it.
@@hunter-constantine dude me too. I bought mine to be my dedicated “slick” nightvision gun. T2 on a 1.93, laser, suppressor. It’s now just slowly morphed into my “well I can just use the specwar for that” gun that I take every single time to everything. I just scored a 9” 300blk upper last night and I’m hoping it’s just as good. It’s like a mini specwar it’s neat. I just don’t shoot 300blk all that much but it popped up and I couldn’t resist lol.
@@MrDustinclement you’ll love it. .300 BO is fun for nods. Night time is so quiet. Especially when others are running 5.56 when you shoot your .300 all you’ll hear is the steel.
I just got a 12” shovel nose to compare the piston system to the DI specwar
@@hunter-constantine yea I’ve got a couple 300 guns, I do love the ballistics 200y and in I just don’t enjoy it as much because subconsciously I’m thinking “that’s a dollar” every time I pull the trigger lol. But I’m super excited about this one. 300 hits steel so hard too it’s wild. Make a video about the shovel nose, I’ve been interested in picking up a piston gun lately just to have one and give it a shot too. I saw a couple spear LT’s at a gun show the other day and it got me thinking about them. They’re just heavy it seems
How do the 12.5 specwars run withought a can?
Love my 12.5” middy!!
So soft!
Nice blaster!! I wish Mega Arms still made their true monolithic uppers, as I’m partial to their design & fit and finish over LMT’s. But still, you’ve set that rig up beautifully man.
Thank you man! Monolithic uppers are becoming a favorite. Every time I’ve gone out to check zero on the MAWL it’s been dead nuts.
I managed to build a quad mega, took me a year and a half to find the pieces.
LMT is the closest thing on the market, another bonus of LMT is the mlok, Mega got sued and shut down before mlok became a thing on the megalithic uppers.
I bought a SD3 Gun trigger for my LMT specwar but honestly the factory trigger is pretty damn good, a little heavy but solid.
Factory one bangs. Since I’m shooting competitions with it I was something a little more refined.
nice video man, good quality and to the point. stay consistent and you’ll grow fast.
Thanks man! I appreciate it!
expensive but i got a couple LMTs. i love em. i get a little ocd about checking my barrel bolts but so far no issues with reliability. i need to grab me a mawl soon. only thing im
missing is nightvision!
Depending on your size you guys are giants
Might want to check the spelling in your video description. Enjoyed the video!!!
Thanks, will do!
anti creep trigger and hammer pins is a big no-no with geissele triggers. take that off there.
Are you gonna tell on me?
@@hunter-constantine no. it's going to damage your fcg, goober.
I own a Specwar the 12.5 barrel is gassed perfect on it, it’s so weird it feels like shooting a 16in
That’s the specwar magic
Might have to put that specwar upper on my SOLGW lower 😩
Dooo it
Sick build, dude 🔥🥷😎
Thanks man!
What reticle do you run on the Razor? Thanks!
Joe from LMT lets make more fucking Specwar uppers already. The 12.5" mid length really is smooth shooting I have it in a standard MLC upper because I haven't been able to find a specwar upper for the last 2 years that wasn't marked up by some jackass.
I did a velocity test with my Labradar and a 11.5" KAC upper vs the 12.5" LMT barreled upper with m193.
The 15 shot average with the 11.5 KAC was 2831fps and with the 12.5" LMT barrel was 2835fps. I was hoping for more of a difference but its one barrel and one lot of m193.
They're in stock at rooftop
@@pescad0Thanks for the heads up. I was finally able to get one. But I went through titandefense a few weeks ago.
IMO, the LMT bcg is not an upgrade from the Sionics NP3 bcg. NP3 is better than chrome or phosphate in everyway. OCKS is better than factory staking. Sprinco extractor spring is better than milspec. Also, I believe the Unity LEAP is 2.05" not 2.26" like the FAST riser is. Otherwise, I have an LMT R20 Rahe civ clode and think they're good rifles.
He said just enhanced bolt not the carrier is getting swapped
What a beast of a rifle how much does it weight with all that add ons?
It’s a hogggg. I haven’t weighted it but probably 10+ lbs
Of course it’s very “little recoil”. That setup has to be at least 12 lbs fully loaded, conservatively. Are you sure you are shooting matches with this setup?
Work on your noodle arms
😂 once the Huxwrx is out of jail lol
you have any issues with that pws castle nut? ive seen alot about them comin loose
No running strong about 2 ish years now
LMT SPECWAR is a dream rig of mine for sure .
I also love 1-6× . I'm currently using 1-10× but I've never went past 6x in 2Gun when we are shooting out to 500Y . Hell 500Y and my ACOG with Offset MRDS works pretty well .
Centurion CM4 MIDWEIGHT HF 13.7 - 14.5 middy is personal favorite . I'm running Turbo K on DA428 Adapter with Pinned NOX HYBRID F.H.. I really wish I would of went with brake TBH but oh well now i know. I also use Springco Blue Spring with Colt H2 Buffer . I've tried using Springco Red but does not cycle reliably with 223 55g FMJ which I use 98.2% of the time . I'm getting 3 o'clock ejection pattern so I'm GTG .
Crazy the LMT MRP has been out for almost 20 years . I bought LMT MRP CQB in 2012 . LMT Enhanced BCG / Bolt was the best kept secret until couple years ago . Kick myself in the ass for trading that LMT but oh well . I love the look of the Specwar and it's such an awesome Carbine . I'm a quad rail fan so I wish theh made 11.5" Quad Version of that Rail . Buddy has 13.25" Quad Rail MRP Upper with D.Wilson MRP Barrel Conversion for Centurion 14.5 MIDWEIGHT HF Barrel. .
I'll always be a sucker for TDP Colt / Colt Canada M4A1 but Centurion and LMT are my absolute favorites. New KAC KS1 13.7" looks pretty bad ass . Especially paired with their new Flow through K Can .
Huxwrx Flow 556k is an awesome Can . I would get one but all my rigs are setup for Keymo . I'll probably try out the new YHM Turbo K-RB . My Turbo is actually big enough to work on my 6ARCs . Dont tell YHM that but I use it on my 6ARC all the time .
Nice video bro
Love the build, mine looks very similar. What zero do you use for the 12.5"?
200 is my go to right now. If I don’t have the space I use 50.
@@hunter-constantine What ammo have you found is most accurate?
@@blakeduncan2930 I primarily run XTAC 55 grain and AAC 75 grain.
Last time I shot groups at distance I got a 2.5” group at 200 with the XTAC 55. I think it could be tighter if I had more magnification or someone with better eye sight was behind the gun. I’m happy with it overall. I’ve shot some multigun matches out to 550 on the clock and the 55 will work but I get more first round impacts with the 75s.
Love Mine
The best
You have a quality lower and trigger so why in TF do you have anti walk pins sir😂
I bought this lower off of gunbroker right before this was filmed. That’s what the dude had on it before. It has since been switched but very fun kek
Awesome rifle brother!!!! What is the barrel and hand guard length?
Awesome…Thank you!!! Strong work my man…keep it going!!!!
Did you cut your upper/hand guard to 12 inches? I cannot find a 12 inch from LMT.
@@micp2387 my bad. 12.5 barrel. 11.5” rail.
All good…i appreciate you brother!!! 👍🏾👊🏾
lemme know when that LMT enhanced bcg is available again cuz I'd Ike 2 or 3 myself
For real. People are taxing like crazy for them rn. Big Tex occasionally gets them
you are not supposed to use anti rotation pins with geissele triggers
No I swapped them since. At the time it’s what I had around before leaving for this event. Sometimes you just gotta send it
I don't know how I'd feel running a 12.5 mid length in principal. Seems like not a lot of dwell time. Are these things reliable unsuppressed?
Very much so.
Reliable to hell and back
Do you still need to remove all mlok attachments to change the barrel?
Depends on where the mlok attachment is located. Sometimes the gas block doesn’t clear without removal of attachments, I had to remove my rail scales to swap barrel. Cheers
are you using an lmt barrel or is there a proof or something in there?
Putting a B5 stock stock on a LMT Rifle is Peak DGAF
your name is hunter too?
@@HunterStGeorge wow three Hunter
🤣🤣🤣
We are not mad, just disappointed
@@lmtdefense3927 papa 👴🏼
I have their 12.5 barrel in the 9.5 upper, I really want that Specwar upper for the length. Why is it so hard to find?
They made a limited run on the original batch. Hopefully we see more soon!
Is your barrel straight? Noticed the barrel on my specwar was canted to the left.
Really? I'd send pics to LMT and let them know.
Anti rotation pins and the pws castle but are peak poor
I am super poor
What is the mount to the red dot?
It’s integrated into the unity tactical fast mount
Nice gun, but that Joe is meh...
I heard he shoots people in the ass with sim guns
😅
Hey I think I missed what grip are you running on that?
LMT ERGO
Can a lmt piston barrel fit in that rail?
Depends on length but the 12” piston would need the shovel nose upper
@@hunter-constantine how about 14.5 length?
@@user-kj2ow5zc1v I’d check gas length on their website
@@hunter-constantine oke thanks sir
Gas piston or Di?
DI
It's not unique, Vltor has been doing it for many years.
LWRC or LMT..
Anti rotation pins?
If you wait for LMT or KAC rifles to be available and you'll die of old age....and likely get price gauged
Heavy price gouge but occasionally you can find some deals
@@hunter-constantine Also if we are keeping it 100%.....they are both great companies. Top Tier for sure. But JP has innovated more than both of them combined. Certainly more than LMT. KAC is doing some amazing things...but LMT has this seemingly impenetrable reputation bc it made the 1st full ambi lower and some slick changes to their BCG.

*Sees anti walk pins
Nope
They’ve been removed since the video was posted.
Sometimes you have to work with what you got in a pinch.
@@hunter-constantine Fair enough 🤣

Damn, I bet that thing weighs like 12 lbs. LOL
Oh shit a pig fosho

Hasn’t LMTs QC been terrible lately?
It’s been but or miss on some things but everything I’ve bought the last 2 years has been spot on.
There are some Reddit threads of people documenting their issues.
