    The gun itself has its own site altogether with specs and all published. This is what the Warsport site leads to:

    LVOA.us

    It really is taking a different approach. I do see sig, LWRC, and HK are bringing tiny SBR's into existence, but this ones does seem to be coming from a new direction. Either way, is it filling a role that needs to be filled? it's my understanding there is this whole "replace the sub-guns" thing flying round. Lest we forget the KAC PDW and Magpul's design.

    You're comparing 2 PDWs with a 12" barreled SBR?

    I make the comparison based on the perceived fads (maybe not "fads" exactly). The warsport gun apparently is for "Low-Visibility Operations" in that it's low profile and how whipped out until it's needed. It was my impression that PDW-style weapons where used for this kind of thing. I'm also taking into account that we've got .300 Blackout idea of replacing things like the MP5 SD. LWRC just recently put out a 6.8 PDW (tiny SBR), and Sig also shows they've got a simmilar .300 blk too.

    Note: The warsport, sig, and lwrc all feature low mass bolts.

    Also note: the KAC PDW is a 10"





    edit: You do make a good point of course.

    Maybe. All it takes is costa to be seen or heard speaking of the bungee, it will take off for sure.

    Hmm, this for $2950 or a SR15 for about $1300 cheaper. Decisions decisions.

    I can think of one site where there is probably already a bungee cord group buy starting.

    I do agree with that. lol

    I mean, who else can sell 200 of the leg rigs @ $140 for $28,000 in less than an hour. Do people actually even use those things for LEO or Military applications? I can see it being a good rig I guess for courses to bring ammo to the line but other than that, why was it even developed?

    Wars Sport LVOA

    A little background on me, my first AR was a stock RRA with a knockoff EOTech, i was a young badass Airborne Infantryman in the 82d ABN DIV and nobody could tell me anything about guns. This was in 2003, shortly after i bought a GG&G free float rail that weighed about 5lbs, and some crap accessories. It stayed in the closet for the better part of 5 years.

    About 2008 i found TOS, and heard about the chart and migrated over here where I check the new posts at least twice a day, read a lot, post a little, and ask questions when i need to. I soon after picked up a Colt 6920, with an Aimpoint M4S, and good parts from Magpul, IWC, and Troy. This year I've managed to score a BCM lower and BCM 16" BHF upper. I am grateful to M4C to help me become a student of the gun over the past few years.

    I’ve been watching War Sport for a while now, searched the forums here and watched the YouTube videos. Today I went with a friend to pick up his gun and learn a little more about the LVOA. Joey is a class act, he was in the process of pinning the BC 1.5 to the 14.5" barrel and while his shop had complete guns for us to look at, I was way more interested in his gunsmithing. He explained everything as he was doing it and answering all my questions.

    After about a half hour I made it over to where the complete guns were and got to handle them. I am really impressed with his rail system, the oval shape felt really comfortable, but I was skeptical about how it would shoot. Joey put the gun together and we were off to test fire it. My first impressions are that this is the softest shooting gun I’ve ever pulled the trigger on! I can certainly tell the difference between my BCM 16" middy and the LVOA. We shot about 200 rounds in 10 minutes without any type of failure with different brands of .223 and 5.56. It shoots very flat and the recoil is incredibly soft.

    I've shot a lot over the past few years trying to learn as much as I can about the AR, an am by no means an expert but I'm going to be saving a little every month until I can buy one of these. If my buddy runs this gun as hard as he's run his others and it’s still going I will certainly buy one, because for me this is the gun of the future.
    Tourniquet, nose hose, chest seal, dart!

    In chaos, there is hope!
