Lantac Tactical Competition Rifle

[Grahamcs]

Thanks for the replies.

Basically,

100m at the local club and if possible up to 600m or more at other venues.

maybe a bit of hunting but no competition as yet.

Is it possible to change barrels easily on an AR platform.

Is it possible to change calibres and actions but stay legal? Say .223 to .22LR semi auto?

Is the TCR the same upper and lower as the more expensive versions?

I am allowed one rifle by the wife (to start with) but she won't know if it changes or has options.

She won't compute why I need more than one.

Welcome to the dark side... :lol:

[Jackmanuk]

you can get a 223 and have a slot on your certificate for a 22lr converter ...getting one is the hard part

Just tell here its like dresses - she would wear different dresses to a disco, a wedding, a funeral etc etc Then there is the shoes, clearly once you have a certain dress, the shoes might not match so new shoes are needed for each dress

Likewise, you need different rifles for different "occasions" !!

[Grahamcs]

I think the .22lr may require a different upper and lower then so basically a different rifle.

May look at the HK 416 for that as it's a bit cheaper later.

dresses? interesting theory

The problem is this will actually cost me double what it costs to even get it if you get what I mean!

You can have a .22lr upper and a .223 upper and they will both use the same lower. Lower can be LANTAC, Spikes, CMMG, or similar.

The HK416 .22lr is NOT compatible with any .223 upper or any AR triggers, selectors, etc.
If you want cost effective .22 stand alone rifle then think Smith & Wesson.

You should also consider Bradley Arms. I am on my second AR from Mark Bradley. The first got me 1st place on the inaugural RBL Match with a 100 yard group of sub .25 moa ! And lots of good results at McQueens up against some very fancy bolt actions !

I now have a second one built for lightness as its for Civillian Service Rifle - the other one was heavier with a heavy PM2 scope, moderator, bipod, bull barrel etc.

He built this for me, had it proofed and ready for collection in 5 days if I remember rightly. And he built it to my spec rather than try to sell me what he had in stock / wanted to sell.

I don't know about the other AR builders / sellers but Mark competes with his rifles and that experience shows in his builds.

Finally, his customer service is second to none although his coffee leaves much to be desired

I think the question was about Lantac TCR not which AR should I buy

[Rburro2]

you also have hera-arms , they have an AR plat form with an 18" target barrel in





this is mine

Nice gun but where is the side charging handle? Pain in the ass without

It's the same upper as the expensive ones only thing that changes is the barrel and the handguard all the other gubbings are the same

I think he posed many questions !


I can't make my mind up
The others seem almost double the cost.

I merely suggested one of the "others".
