Looks like piston upper, MARS lower.

From LMT:

"These weapons utilize the LMT Defense monolithic upper on the MARS rifle system. The MARS was developed in 2014 and was initially delivered under contract to New Zealand Defence Force. The MARS weapon platform is a completely ambidextrous rifle system including ambidextrous bolt catch, bolt release, safety selector, magazine release and charging handle."

Is it me or does LMT seem like Colt from 10-20 years ago.? Definitely more innovative but with a product line that is high priced and hard to obtain. Also, very focused on LE and MIL contracts.

As lomg as they stop using them lame Galils.

I know the Russians have HK416s, but I wonder if they gonna start getting LMTs "somehow".

Outstanding. LMT is an excellent company and makes excellent products.

Civilians are fickle, firearms laws change with administrations.
