    Measuring with my handy trusty antique yardstick, mine measures 32 15/16" to 36 1/8"...I don't have any way to weigh it, but it shouldn't be more than .25lb more. The op rod/spring and gas cylinder are very light...not as light as an aluminum gas tube, but very light as to not be noticeable.

    Many thanks for posting that info. I love these forums. Have a great weekend.

    iv been looking at getting piston gun for a while ad have been eye balling these but i cant decide over a LWRC M4A3 and the adjustable piston gas system they have. is it worth getting the LWRC or save the bucks and get LMT. its going to be run with a can.

    I've never shot a LWRC but I saw one today up close. My local shop had just gotten two in so I took one apart. Looking at it I prefer my LMT as it's a simpler build and the LMT has a single piece BC. No key to come loose. Easier to take down the LMT. Again, just my opinion.

    BTW, both of the LWRCs sold while I was standing there (to the same person). They didn't last long.

    Here you go. The pads on the back do make it a slightly larger diameter. It's even more in person than it looks in these pics. It's the same buffer tube but I guess it still falls within the tolerances. It's not a LOT, but it's more.

    Also I took a pic showing that the piston BC has thicker walls than the standard BC.

    Take a look at POF-USA. I'm going to run an AAC M4-2000 on mine and it is indeed going to be a long stick. I may wind up with a piston SBR upper just to make it more manageable.
