  • I try to bring a review on the Sig Spear LT from the perspective of a proficient shooters view. I see a lot of reviews from hobbyist shooters and there is nothing wrong with those reviews I just feel they don't tell the entire truth aside from just picking it up and pressing the trigger. I love this gun, but in reality I could do the same thing with a Aero, BCM, PSA, ATI. There will be second part talking about the gas block, the barrel caliber interchangeability, the piston operating system and the accuracy with different ammo types.

    Impressive 25 yard bill drill! You’re a great shooter and very humble. Love the channel! Keep up the hard work

      I checked out some of your other videos. The 1.5 sec from concealment to a 100 was very impressive

    Great vid! I agree on the trigger. I think it’s good enough and I actually liked it until I tried to shoot it for groups on the bench. Then I could tell the pull was heavier than I was used to. Doing drills at 30 yards and in the trigger is just fine. If you’re going to shoot long range or for best groups then get a better trigger.
    The rifle is very front heavy and this becomes super noticeable if you add a heavy suppressor to the front.

      Exactly, overall, it's a great system!

    My biggest complaint about the spear LT is how uncomfortable both the brace and skeleton stock are with no adjustable length of pull

    • @ArmedCitizensEvolution
      @ArmedCitizensEvolution  3 місяці тому

      I don't have any experience with the stock. The length of pull of the brace is adequate enough for me, but I do get told I have trex arms by my friends. I may just have shorter arms than most.

    Hey there, just picked up a Spear LT yesterday. Any suggests on how I can pin/lock the stock to make in un-foldable and CA legal.

      Sig makes a 1913 pic, version of the folding hinge that isn't foldable. Try primaryarms.com or other similar sites. You'll be able to find them fairly easily.

    Can you compare the recoil impulse to a a decent direct impingement firearm. Is it sharper softer? Any advantage? I am researching getting a lt. Never have shot one.

      I can glady put that info in my next video. I'll be uploading it in the coming week.

      In my experience it really depends on a few things. First is what DI gun are you talking about? My Daniel Defense 16” (untuned) is about the same as my Spear 16” in the high gas setting. And that means it’s bad as far as an AR goes. Both will jump significantly as the bolt travels at a high rate of speed and slams back onto its stop. Certainly not a bolt gun but definitely more recoil and muzzle movement than is achievable.
      However, if you shoot the spear in the low gas setting it’s very manageable and easy to bring back on target. It’s not as nice as a finely tuned DI gun but it’s pretty close. I also like the shorter version of the spear better than the 16”. For some reason it just seems to be a nicer shooting gun.
      The recoil impulse is different though as the AR BCG and buffer system feels different than the short stroke piston system. The movement of the bolt is confined to the upper so all of the movement happens in the middle of the gun vs. the buffer bouncing off the back of the buffer tube. In general I think you can tune an AR to be softer shooting than the spear but as long as you aren’t shooting full 5.56 on the high gas setting it’s shoots nice.

      ​@mavrikmavrik3032 I don't own a 16" model, but my 11.5" is extremely manageable. In my second video of the spear lt I explained my thoughts on the recoil. Definitely is one of my favorite setups, especially once suppresed.
